Pros
The people here are the best I've ever worked with over a 20 year career. I know companies all say that, but here it's 100% true. The caliber of talent, the amount of fun we all have, the (mostly) lack of ego with everyone I work with... it's absolutely incredible. I've made close friends for life here; when some of them leave, they've all missed the culture and the people dearly. You'll see some harsh critiques from me below, and it's only because I think AB could be even better, but I can't say enough about the quality of work, the amazing products, the ambition to be the #1 entertainment company of the 21st century, the bright future, and especially the incredible people. Amazing team and still has a startup mentality -- often in both a good and bad way, but mostly good.
Cons
The processes and systems are not strengths here, but again, the place seems to attract such inspired, talented, entrepreneurial people that they more than make up for that. The AB leadership team is incredibly competent and focused, but they should be way more communicative and proactive about getting in front of employees. I know they appreciate the huge sacrifices employees make for the company, but could do a TON more to actually show it, like socializing with us more and offering more interaction and visibility; also giving everyone access to a stock purchase program and not just handing out equity to the magical "Directors and above" cutoff. We ALL work very hard here. A lot of the ways to recognize that effort are free. Walk the building. Talk to us. Let us ask questions. Again, all that said, I can't say our cons outweigh our pros. I love it here, but it could be even better. My critiques sound strong because I care about the place, a lot.
