      Thanks so much for taking the time to give us feedback! Really pleased to hear you are enjoying it here, and getting support from your team - we can't wait to see how your role develops in the future. We've taken on your feedback on the second breakout and we'll have a think about some ways we could better utilise the area. We've tried to keep it as a quiet space for employee's to take their laptops and work away from their desks or have casual meetings - but i'm sure we can think of some ways to improve this - suggestions welcomed!

      Pros

      The people are hip and really great, though I guess it would depend on the office you go to. I love that there are monthly happy hours and events that keep things fun, plus the summer and holiday parties are always something to look forward to. Lots of internal career advancement depending on your department.

      Cons

      Disconnect with the head office in Berlin and the other major offices. Maybe it's a difference in how the music industry evolves regionally or varying business practices, but the head office has prevented several good opportunities and signings from going through at various offices, which of course, damages the company's brand/reputation and profitability. This leads to a decrease in morale and faith in BMG internally and produces a high turnover rate across multiple departments. Also, BMG is known for low-balling their employee salaries and outsourcing some of their employees to avoid the commitment of paying for benefits. There's disorganization at every level in many departments.

      Pros

      Growing quickly for a music industry company. There are generally opportunities to take on new challenges and help drive innovation.

      Cons

      Matrix/cross-territory reporting structures can create communication challenges.
