Pros

Benefits and location are great. Solid day to day duties.

Cons

Compensation and hours are not. They low ball really hard. Another company is offering market value of $58k vs $40k here. I plan on leaving.

Pros

BMG is an exciting, dynamic place to work. Parent company Bertelsmann is extremely supportive and gives great benefits, and BMG is one of very few truly exciting music companies.

Cons

BMG generally pays below market rates.

Pros

The pay is on the higher end of the industry. The offices aren't too shabby. A good work/life balance. My supervisors were great, but I think I got lucky

Cons

I implore you to look around if you do interview here. Notice how there's no young blood. They were the ones smart enough to get out asap. The company culture is garbage. I never realized how much I valued a company's culture until I came here. It feels extremely cliquey. Nobody says hi to each other, and they just look down at the floor while walking to avoid eye contact. Nobody here actually even cares about the industry either, I wanted to go into the industry because I was passionate about the business and wanted to work with likeminded people but nobody could care less. It's sad it really is. Also, my job is dependent upon an outdated system, the bane of my existence, iMaestro.
