What did you like most about the interview process?

It was simple, did not have to do multiple interviews. At the time I actually had a boss who could recognize a good employee when they see them.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Because it is so bad starting from the top, they don't learn much. We all learn how not to be. There is animosity amongst each other and major lack or communication or transparency in fear of people betraying each other.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

They need a complete overhaul - too many stubborn "veteran" execs and employees who have some how gotten away with their toxic behavior yr over yr, with old ideas and only interested in staying employed with their bloated paychecks. Talk of personal and professional development never happens.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

HR does not pay attention to dept turn around/red flags. Executives are not thoroughly vetted before hired. When working in the entertainment industry you get a reputation for your work ethic/who you are as a person, that is not taken into account because the execs have no idea what they are doing.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Actually leading. They are aware of the low morale and toxic culture but don't know how or try to address it. They set the example of how not to be. Toxic people are enabled to the point where people w/top tier talent leave w/out another job lined up. Nothing changes as a result. Multiple red flags.
