Desventajas
I've never had my seat moved more often for seemingly pointless reasons, I'd argue that the constant shuffling costs more time and money than someone not sitting in an ideal spot and needing to email, call or walk over to someone else. This wasn't just myself but entire departments or projects would move on what felt like a monthly basis. There was an overall feeling of frustration from everyone I spoke with about this, it was definitely one of my main reasons for leaving. Certain people promoted as seniors or supervisors are anything but a senior and would definitely not last in a senior role at a competitor like ILM, Double Negative or Weta. The company takes on too much work for what it can reliably do, every department seemed stressed out and not able to keep up. Pipeline was putrid and the worst I have seen in 10 years of VFX, in fact calling it a pipeline is an insult to a real VFX pipeline because it is junk. Favoritism for certain people. Some projects are so poorly managed and the amount of OT needed is not sane, other projects seem to run smoothly.
