The studio is wedged between a donkey pit and the owner's gaff. In that well known town of Westby.
Top management (CEO) could really screw in on small details unnecessarily like very inconsequential costs, or micro managing other leads.
Scanalous hours for some projects - agreeing to unrealistic projects and signing up all and sundry burns out some artists.
Top management not always sharing info and takes on far too much. It exhaust them and leaves no room for delegation, allowing others to take on work in other areas to support (and help employees grow). So we get stretched leads/producers and stalled artists/devs.
Too much politics sometimes.
