No respect for artists - Visual Development Artist Sony Pictures Animation Employee Review

I love everything about working with SPA. The great team, no time pressure, a lot of creative growth. Love the management team, always there to help

No Cons. Everything seems to be great

The benefits provided are standard. Provide standard time off and holidays but often expand holiday time. Christmas is about two weeks off paid.

Compared to most studios, Sony Pictures Animation pays the less. This is according to IATSE Local 700 Union. After two years of employment, I asked management to discuss pay increase and they wouldn't have that conversation with me. When I asked to be notified when management had additional opportunities, they never connected me with films to interview. There were never annual reviews. Most of all, they would give me tasks outside of the responsibilities my union position, assisting on needs that were outside of Sony Pictures Animation. Notoriously, Sony Pictures Animation does not promote within. There were people who had been there eight years who were in the same position. Don't expect income or job growth.
