Amazon is not a great place to flex being a creative’s creative - it’s very business focused and strat driven and the processes and people are robotic. If you go Amazon, take it for the money and get as much as you can. Limited PTO and holidays, company-value driven to the point of cult, thicccc processes that get in the way of joy/play/expression/fun (which kills creative imo). Lots of ppl do it, idk how I had to leave.

Mustache was more of a video post production house until they were acquired by tech consultancy, Cognizant. Now I believe they’re trying to become a full-service agency.

Most of that’s true but it was never a video post production house. Always created content through all phases. A few years in creative talent was brought in-house.

Run away from Amazon as fast as you can. CD1 hit all the points right on the head.

CEO is too old can't stand remote work? What to do?

Problem is the CEO is like 60 years old and said can't stand the remote work culture.

I've been trying to get a new job to leave my current job because of the toxic workplace even though I've been working remotely for the past 2 years.

I don't understand why I have to go to the office if I can do the same job from home?

Why is that? Should I accept this job offer or not?

I wanted to share my interview experience at Systems Evolution (SEI) here. A very time consuming interview process with an interesting vibe. Not good or not bad vibe, but a bit unique.

My biggest complaint is after 6 1-hour interviews, I received a generic "not moving forward" email. That is shameful by every company, but especially a small company that prides itself on transparency, culture, and an ownership model. SEI – Systems Evolution Inc
