DeviantArt was a really fun place to work; great environment, solid benefits, fun coworkers, snacks and video games galore. It was a place where bright, colorful people collaborated and made awesome stuff for an even more awesome community.
Minpunten
Later in my employment there were some really tragic management decisions that started a downward spiral for the company. Instead of reassessing company infrastructure or bringing in a consultant to address the issues and possible solutions, they flailed and laid off around 80% of the company, none of which were the upper management that had enabled the root issues. This tanked moral and many others jumped ship after that. The hardest thing to work around is the CEO, who is unfocused and prone to rash decisions, often demanding employees pursue poorly thought out pipe-dream projects that water down any viable products.
