JAKKS Pacific Reviews

Pros

Pay good and hours good

Cons

Never a manager around to help

Pros

Some good employees still work there. But not sure as I heard there was another recent lay off.

Cons

Very top management has no clue what they are doing. No more 401 K matching and the work load is too much.

Pros

Great locaiton and talented, fun and hard working co-workers.

Cons

I can only speak on my department. There was poor project management. Lots of money being thrown away due to lack of focus and organization.

Pros

The best people work at Jakks

Cons

Long hours and hard work but it pays off in the end.

Pros

Great Co workers - it's like a family

Cons

Executive management has no clue

Pros

The office space is ok. Located near food trucks. Sometimes you get free toys. Most of the people I worked with directly were nice.

Cons

The most personally and creatively frustrating job I’ve ever had. Work wise, the extra mile is always expected of you but the favor never gets returned. Expect to see people with great ideas get ignored. Theres so many projects where company refuses to invest in quality, does it the cheapest way possible and then expects it to be a hit, only for it to fail - but the employees are the ones who pay when the layoffs follow immediately after. Very negative atmosphere, low morale. Expect to see hard working people get guilted out of taking time off for holidays. If you are creative, want to flourish in your career, and care about your mental health, please do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.
