Pros

A unique pathway into a film & TV related career.

Cons

- constant & aggressive micromanagement from CEO & VP - insane staff turnover - most staff have only been here 6 months!!! - super gossipy, don’t listen when they say no questions are stupid. They hate feedback/suggestions to improve too & will just blame you for not doing a good enough job as things are. - unlimited vacation days is a lie, expect to be always available - weak business model but staff get blamed as soon as clients catch wind - HR exists only to protect leadership - they ask employees to post positive reviews, so consider that with the 5 star ratings

Pros

Smart, collaborative team with a strong, people first culture. There is a lot of trust, ownership, and accountability, so you are empowered to lead your work and take real responsibility. You get meaningful exposure to great partners and projects, with plenty of room to grow if you take initiative. I have been here a little over a year and still feel challenged, supported, and genuinely energized by the work and the people, which says a lot.

Cons

No real cons to report. The pace is fast and there is a high level of ownership, which can feel like a lot for some. Personally, I love challenging work and this kind of environment, so it has only been a positive.

Pros

Eightpm is a different kind of company to work for. The main priority here is consistent execution and outcomes. The CEO has a modern leadership style and is very clear about expectations—and that approach makes sense given the company’s goals. I appreciate the culture that has been built, especially the opportunity to communicate directly and objectively, without unnecessary bureaucracy. I also value being close to my teammates and learning through hands-on collaboration, which creates better opportunities for growth within the company.

Cons

You need to be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment that requires a high level of proactivity. This may not be the best fit for someone who prefers a slower or more structured setting.
