Pros

It's a great place to work in general. The management and company in general do seem to have a genuine desire to create a great place to work. Nice campus, free food, activities, perks. Union provides all benefits eg. health etc. which are generally regarded as being very good

Cons

The grass is always greener. Every company has it's issues and Dreamworks has it's fair share of politics, favouritism, short sightedness etc. I wouldn't say its any worse than anywhere else. Generally it feels a bit like a retirement home which is not necessarily a bad thing. Things change very slowly, life moves quite slowly but mostly that is part of the feature animation world.
