In what way?

Yeah, I’ve worked there for a few years now.
The endless internal rounds are ridiculous.
Everyone has a hand in creative. I personally don’t believe in the creative leadership. The focus on the slides over the thinking they represent is straight up a waste of time.

But they have it coming: everything will move
to Marcom, and all that MAL will do is Apple TV+ social and localization. Maybe another 2-3 years of Media Arts Lab as it is today.

I’ve heard it’s very corporate.
