Pros

You can bring your dog to work. And some of the people are amazing. Others not so much.

Cons

The company is run by the two owners who have no idea what they are doing. They are confused, out of money, and painfully in debt. They love to fire people when they have no idea what they are going to do, even people they can not afford to lose. One of the owners is in their early 20s, never had a job and never been told no. If you disagree with him, you need to start looking for a new job, he will make sure you are fired soon after. They love to have meetings with management all day so you never get to talk to your boss if you have a question. You are lucky if you get an answer 8-14 hours later. They do not try to understand, they don't even think about their employees, they only think for themselves. You are also left out of all information, especially of it involves you. You are lucky if you even work there for more then 6 months. Also, the other reviews are correct, half the time you are lucky if a filmer even shows up. They want you to work all of your weekend in all departments. But they don't pay you for it. If you are salary, you only get compensated for the week days, not the weekends. So it does not matter if you work or not, you do not get paid. Be careful if you are thinking about coming to work here, they are not all they are made out to be, or what they try to make themselves out to be. They make current employees write positive reviews on here so they do not look so bad, but they also write the good ones themselves. So be careful, be very cautious.

Pros

Senior management come from significant backgrounds in the media industry and if that is the industry you are trying to break into have a lot of value and education to give. I appreciate having health benefits in a small but growing company. Salaries are competitive with opportunity to grow into higher paying and responsibility positions over time. The team here all work very hard and are a great group to be a part of. All in all, the company is doing amazing things within the video media industry and it is cool to be a part of something like this in North Idaho.

Cons

The building can be kind of wonky and is a bit old. Timelines tend to take longer then expected, but I think that is getting better.
