Reviews about "low pay"
Return to all Reviews- 3.0Mar 31, 2014EngineerFormer Employee, more than 3 yearsLos Angeles, CA
Pros
Important work is being done there. Everyone there is a film lover and if you are too you will fit right in. Pretty laid back atmosphere like a library.
Cons
The pay isn't so great and there never seems to be enough budget to make improvements. Difficult to change pay grades and you will cap out over time.

Pros
The work environment wasn't too stressful and cooperation was promoted. In addition, the hours were flexible and I was able to work around my university classes.
Cons
The work was usually mundane and the pay was not much compared to other jobs in the LA area.
