Universal Music Group Employee Reviews

a warm and friendly welcoming environment

Amazing company, great benefits and company culture. Absolutely would recommend to anyone who wants to work in the music industry.

Its the best. I love all my coworkers as we are all productive.

Average treatment of staff members

After 10 years with Atlantic Records, being here is Incredible!

Ability to lead, great mentorship, knowledge sharing and patience.

They are very mute about the company's strategic initiatives

They are committed to continuing to grow in any aspect of the company

Willing to step in and help get things done

They recognize the issues with the department and are open to suggestions.

Realizing people are people not employee numbers

No formalized feedback or review process

They are lacking in leadership.

The Stock that was included in my contract to move here, has me financially set for life!

Pay for my health necessities and for my recent surgery.

they have programs for 401k up to 5% matching

Bonus has been consistently more than the target for past 5 years

Health Care is excellent at UMG

The amout of responsibilities are huge and I am not getting payed as I should

I feel we put in a large deal of work only to get nickle and dimes on things like time off, lunch breaks, etc. and I feel we are paid below industry standard.

401k or pay raise would make me feel better

I recorded a shift manager when she cussed me, yelled at me, accused me of untrue things, called me inappropriate names, and said she was going to cut my hours. My hours were cut. The manger and the cooks, her boyfriend & her roommate, told lies to the store manger. AND NOTHING HAPPENED TO HER!

We are like a family

We create things we enjoy making for a living and get to spend time together.

Small team, so we know each other well and work well together after years of being a team.

The team I work on is trying to make the business and company better

Passion, progression, determination, understanding. What our artists want and how that helps our business opportunities.

i enjoy some of the community at my work, but the support when it comes to dealing with important healthy work environment issues is lacking. i commonly feel condescended and management was unhelpful in reaching resolution. i wish this had been as wonderful of an experience as i was hoping it to be.

There is no spirit of innovation and problem solving except in a few individuals, and many times it’s ove

The manager that is rude to the customers and employees should be fired.

The sense of family and camaraderie

The will to succeed. The support when it's needed and the collaboration across areas

Everyone's bond to music

Sexism is still a thing at this company (At this office) and management tends to lean on the side to favor whoever is "higher up" in the company rather than who is actually right.

sexism and favoritism needs to be addressed in certain departments. we should be industry leaders and lead by example, but instead, forward thinkers are quieted and we are so separated as a company that support is few and far between.

Employees never do any deep cleaning. No extra cleaning is done.

Many areas of the company are very hierarchical and managed in an old school way

I was a referral, so I'm not sure I'm qualified to answer this question.

it gave me a snapshot of what i thought i was signing up for! it was so fresh and the onboarding team made us feel like we were joining a family.

I was able to get a good read of the management

When I get to work on a release that means something to me

Solving new problems and providing solutions

I frequently get new assignments so I have variety to my work

Delivering exciting and engaging projects.

Coming in and working on exciting projects

updating methods for a digital age would be ideal as well as combating condescension in the workplace.

The managers should be professional and set a good example. New employees should be correctly trained.
