caption editor

Captionmax Inc

Things are constantly changing and TV production never sleeps, so Captionmax definitely keeps you on your toes! 

I've worked through various roles here, starting as a Caption Editor. Yeah, the pay is low...at first. Put in your time, express your interest in moving up, learn about the industry, get to know your coworkers. You'll get to where you wanna be eventually.

I've met my best friends here. I've worked with some of the coolest, most creative, and eclectic people in Minneapolis. It's a good team of people.

Interesting job with lots of downtime. Live captioning can be stressful and unexpected at times. Lots of different programs keeps it from getting stale. Unfortunate hours (nights, early mornings, weekends). TV never sleeps so neither does captioning. No where really to advance except into a supervisor position. Pay is okay.

The pay isn't great, and if you work the night shift the offices heating is shut off, so it can get very cold. They're understanding if you don't quite finish on time, suggesting you stay overtime to finish up. There is a lot of OT available if you want it. You have an hour of lunch/breaktime that you can divide up however you want, which is nice.

Lots of reality shows, low effort TV, and procedural crime shows.

Their content used to be better as did the pay, but recently they have lowered the compensation rate SIGNIFICANTLY and have replaced a lot of the human work with voice capture.

The environment is highly collaborative, and there is a genuine emphasis on innovation. I particularly appreciated the transparency from leadership and the supportive nature of my team, which made tackling complex projects much more rewarding.

A lot is expected of every single employee often having to work overtime to complete projects. Compensation is not fair for the amount of work each person is asked to do. All work no fun atmosphere, which is very sad as it didn't used to be that way.

Great place to work if you are out of school and need a first job. Not many advancement opportunities and not much appreciation for the job done. Salaries are not really great.

I really liked working here. My coworkers and management were great and the day-to-day tasks were fun and unique (stressful at times, but what job isn't). I only left because of the pay.

Good company to work for, great supervisor in my department.  Fun work, learned a lot.  Was sad to know that they were closing our department and moving it to another state.

I was a Quick Learner and my Supervisor Trusted me enough to always get the job done.  The Company closed in Burbank and the only office in the mid west remained open.
