Pros

Good people, and a sense of "innovation" in the work

Cons

As it turns out, the "innovation" is mostly lip service. The smart purchase of STARZ has done little to help the company, because they still operate like two companies. While other tech companies have successfully entered the entertainment and streaming space, Lionsgate still doesn't offer anything to differentiate themselves from other studios, thus see themselves falling behind. The sense of uncertainty about the future was constant, and that was before COVID shut down the theaters. Pay was below entertainment industry standards, and available resources & budgets were often the same.

Pros

The motion picture department I worked with was great. Very helpful and professional. I learned a lot.

Cons

The HR department is so petty. The SR Manager of Talent Acquisition, in particular, is so immature. Resentful of those who don't work in HR. The HR department in total is toxic and bitter, and resentful of those who don't have to work in HR because we took the initiative to develop our skills outside of working in HR.
