Will contribute what I know:

  • Focus on media / comms, less so software; founder runs Take-2 (2K, GTA, etc), so that's pretty cool
  • Highly operationally-focused (no port ops team), so large exposure to PortCos - usually signals worse WLB
  • Very low observed turnover, most VPs were promoted internally, usually a good signal for WLB

Others can offer more direct stuff, but it's a smaller shop so I doubt you get too much here
