Pros

There are actually some great people that works there; Those that stay beyond 5 years probably are pretty loyal; Retail products have a positive impact on young children.

Kontras

way too disorganized; directions of projects change way too often; there seems to be way too many "running" changes, changes are made and expectation is to still meet the original production start date; it is always a frantic "i need this now" environment, well if you had planned better or made a decision sooner, you wouldn't be in a "i need this now" mode; the turnover at the "executive" level is ridiculous, as a result this "revolving door" simply puts executives into nice corner offices and nothing really gets improved, it gets worse; these incoming executives all think they can "change" the process and make things better, after all, they are "executives", right? it turns out that they are just six figure monetary drain on a company that already cannot give raises to its existing employees; i have never seen so much dilution of what normally are prestigious VP, SVP and EVP professional titles; this company has devalued these titles so much its embarrassing; then there are the handful that have jobs there simply because of familial ties, they simply are just inexperienced dead weights; there are no advancement opportunities at the manager level; the morale there sucks and the folks in charge of improving the morale are clueless. they send these emails about programs that improves morale but only just further alienate folks; ask anyone about the infamous vacation hours/ sick hours usage; lets see, what else? oh, ask someone there about the new system that was being implemented. what a joke and nightmare that was; unbelievable amount of money just flushed down the toilet; its back to the "evaluating" stage; maybe the "executive" involved would've thought about doing the "evaluating" at the beginning of the project; oh wait, the "executive" in charge of that mess resigned mid way through, probably realizing the debacle that they created.

Pros

Iconic, category-defining brands. Working on Bratz, L.O.L. Surprise, Little Tikes, Rainbow High, and Miniverse means your work shows up on shelves worldwide and in pop culture, not in a slide deck nobody reads. Founder-led, entrepreneurial culture. Decisions get made fast. You can pitch an idea Monday and be executing on it by Wednesday. Very little of the corporate molasses you see at public CPG or media companies. Real ownership and scope. Even mid-level roles get broad mandates. Senior roles touch IP, partnerships, content, DTC, manufacturing, and operations in the same week. If you want to learn how a vertically integrated toy and entertainment business actually works, there's no better seat. Privately held means long-term thinking. No quarterly earnings call dictating moves. The company can invest in slower-burn bets like new IP, content extensions, and AI infrastructure that a public competitor would kill in budget cycles. Genuine investment in AI and modern tooling. Leadership is actively adopting AI agents, automation, and forward-deployed engineering partners. Not lip service. Real budget and real pilots. Heavyweight IP and licensing relationships. You get exposure to deals with the biggest studios, streamers, and retailers in the world. Amazon, MGM, Walmart, Target, Netflix. Rooms most people don't get into until much later in their careers. Strong benefits package. Medical, dental, vision, and 401K offerings are competitive for the industry. Mission that's easy to care about. It's toys. You're making products that kids love. That's a clearer "why" than most jobs offer.

None that I can think of.

Pros

Some free toys if you're lucky.

Kontras

The worst bi-polar CEO there is, who rules like a tyrant and is full of hypocrisy about originality when all he does is copy his competitors! C-Level Suite is dysfunctional at best, with no management or leadership skills to save their lives. It's all about who you know there and not what you produce. If you're looking for a meritocracy, it sure ain't here.
