Pros

.The creative team is full of great people .Great social events, well organized and well thought out. .Some good opportunities to film charities

Cons

.Unless you become good mates with management, the best opportunities will not be given to you. .Don't expect a pay rise. I asked for a pay rise persistently for a year, but it was always "Sorry we'll look into that" and nothing. I finally got to talk to a creative director about it and I was told that they basically didn't know if I deserved it and that my soon to be new line manager would be asked to watch me for the next couple of months so he could assess if I should get a pay rise. I'd been at Lewis for almost 2 years and you're telling me you didn't know if I could have a raise or not? Then of course my new line manager was not ever even officially made my line manager so it was clearly a blatant lie to keep me quiet for a bit. Many others I know were also looking for a pay rise and had no luck too. .Anything the CEO says goes, no one ever tells him no. It doesn't matter if it's almost impossible to do, will ruin a pitch, or mess up a video, management will do absolutely anything he wants. .Absolutely no structure in place for career growth. .Basically no structure at all. My line manager barely ever talked to me (I feel he may have been overworked in fairness). . People are let go and or fired like it's nothing, in the first couple of months working at Lewis 2 out of the 4 video staff were let go, I know a key member of staff who's a very hard worker who'd been there for well over a decade was even sized up to be let go. I made a mistake losing some audio on an internal event and I had two people who were meant to have audio backups but somehow it didn't get recorded either and like that 2 years of good work were worth nothing to them, no warning, no negotiation, straight dismissal. Oh and the bonus that all staff who'd worked the full financial year (which I did) was taken away too. .Management acts like they care but they don't. On my last day after working my notice, many people did say goodbye and were very supportive and lovely. Both Creative directors didn't even bother to say goodbye to me.
