what makes a place a sweatshop?

I’m a creative and outside of pitches, production (pre-pro, esp if it’s, shoots, travel, edit), I probably have to work 1 weekend per quarter and probably work past 6 once a week.

That’s not bad to me but i would feel worse if work wasn’t getting made, or if I was up against several teams on every project, or I wasn’t getting feedback and just spiraling on every project (experienced this a lot at another agency while we all worked remote)

Is your firm treating 12/26 and 12/27 as firm holiday since the 24th and the 25th are during the weekend this year? Of course client demands would dictate whether people will be working, but curious what the official policy is. For what it’s worth, my firm treated the day after thanksgiving as holiday and I didn’t have to work for the whole day.

How does YOE work for comp?

My total is different from post-grad different from manager titles. Some companies consider manager title to determine YOE for comp which didn’t make sense.
