None cool neat fun great

Avantages

You get paid decently.

Inconvénients

Your time as an artist here is wasted if you are on a Marvel show with a lead and supervisor who lack communication skills. Youll be constantly updating because nothing is finalized in any department until the end. Want notes? Not until 6pm then you are pressured to stay late.

Conseils à la direction

Please have some respect for your artists. Appreciate it when they come in on a Saturday instead of shaming and pressuring them into it. Us artists give up a lot to do this work, and your lack of management and communication is really showing us what you think.

Avantages

good support from lead and supervisor good staffs good food

Inconvénients

they don't have much show now

Avantages

This is a really good place in terms of the quality of people on the floor. Teams are good and easy to get along with, very few egos at play here. They are very accommodating to people's real life schedules (kids, medical, etc.) The final result of the work is usually quite good and something to be proud of.

Inconvénients

For whatever reason, this company struggles to consistently get work, which will hopefully change once their Montreal studio is established and they can offer that QC tax credit the studios are now after. I think this results in them taking on a lot of 911 jobs to fill the gap. As a contract worker, it can get a little dicey and contract renewals usually come right down to the wire (as in 1-2 weeks) of your end date....

Conseils à la direction

Management absolutely needs to listen more to feedback from those who are actually on the floor, particularly seniors and leads, who deal with the impacts of their decisions regarding supervisor assignment, promotions, tool development, etc. On the subject of supervisors: First of all, there are a lot of really good sups at DD, but I feel like there are a lot of promotions to these types of positions that are not...

Avantages

Interesting projects, fair wages, good co-workers

Inconvénients

Uncertainty concerning employment beyond current contract

Avantages

- A history in visual effects worth being proud of. - Compensation is roughly in line with the standard.

Inconvénients

- Backstabbing, political environment. - Carrots waved in front of employees with no intention of following through. - Ancient, frustrating pipeline. - There seems to be a gung-ho attitude by senior staff members that we can burn through newer contract workers by brute forcing everything as opposed to careful planning and organizing your core business efficiently. - No interest in advancing the pipeline towards...

Conseils à la direction

Develop a clear sense of direction of your visual effects business. Address the political issues. Modernize your pipeline. You can't live off your history forever, understand that your reputation is being tarnished by allowing a festering back-stabbing environment to thrive, and the best artists are actively avoiding your company.

Avantages

Great people to work with.

Inconvénients

Company needs to update equipment.

Avantages

Great team of co workers

Inconvénients

Management are awful at dealing with core issues and complacent staff

Conseils à la direction

Keep hold of the good team members and cut loose the unproductive ones. Talk to and listen to the artists on the ground doing the actual work. You are nothing without them.
