Pluspunten

There's a 20 word minimum for "pros" but I honestly can't come up with 20 positive things to say about this horrifying, soul sucking black hole. I'm only giving them one star because I don't have the option not to give them any.

Minpunten

Where to begin. It would be easier to talk about what isn't wrong with Funimation, where you should be watching....your back. - The employees hate each other. The infighting overshadows the actual objective 9 times out of 10, and the work quality suffers as a result. Management refuses to do anything. - The company actively hates the fanbase. You know, those people who buy their product, line their pockets and keep the lights on in the building? Yeah. Them. The word "fan" is practically a slur at Funimation. You are ridiculed at Funimation for being "too much of a fan." Numerous times things that fans say or post online are openly ridiculed for all to hear throughout the building. Anime fans, when you buy products from Funimation, you're essentially giving money to people who think you are stupid. - They have no respect for the Japanese licensors - HR is a joke. For months we didn't even have an HR person. - Pay is not even just below industry standards, it's more or less below the poverty line - People are routinely run out the door to satisfy the blood grudges of the calcified old guard - Zero job security. Zero opportunities for advancement. Zero hope. - Harassment may as well be one of their core values - CYA is more important than doing a good job, there is more infighting and gossip than there is support and teamwork, people are fired mysteriously and without explanation, there is a constant human crush of people clawing their way out the door, and to top it all off? The place is disgusting. People are constantly sick. - If they fire you for no reason, they'll try to fight your unemployment. They'll lose, of course, but it's still annoying. When you get a new job, they'll refuse to verify your employment. It remains to be seen if they are aware that there are federal processes in place to protect employees (and ex employees) from their immature, vindictive attempts to keep people from moving on with their lives. Funimation is the Ed Hardy of the anime industry. Working here was like being in an Orwell novel. You'll show up on your first day bright eyed and filled with excitement, and leave in a body bag covered in graffiti and riddled with bullet holes. Just don't do it. You'd be better off working in public sanitation. You'd probably be paid better, too.

Pluspunten

Working in anime and entertainment industry. Most people great to work with.

Minpunten

Revolving-door management. After merger with Crunchyroll, it all went downhill. For every problem they think adding a middle micro manager is a solution instead of people who can actually get the work done.
