Saturday Night Live

Working at SNL for almost 15 years has taught me much about multitasking, working quickly and efficiently, and being able to communicate with everyone from celebrities, producers, directors, and pages. My time there was spent writing, proofreading, rehearsing, and making sure that everything fit. I found it quite draining at times, but ultimately, it has been one of the most unique and demanding jobs I've ever had the privilege to hold.

SNL offers a very competitive environment that doesn't want you to succeed. I was shouted at multiple times a day and felt worthless. Any time I tried to raise concerns I was told that I should be appreciative because I was working for a show like SNL. The name isn't worth a poor work environment. 

there are also days where you may not eat. don't ask to take a lunch because you'll be viewed as weak or whiney.

This is a very fast paste company, never a predicable day. I learned how to accept a very wide variety walks of life. The management team is  very relaxed and upbeat group, fun to work with and work for. The most difficult part of this job was some of the situations that would come forward. I loved my co-workers and most of my customers.

Wonderful place to work, very fast paced and great place to learn to think fast!  I learned to be confident in my decision making and if you couldn't multi task, this was not the place for you!  I loved it but after 16 years, it was time for something new!

No matter how much you’re enticed by the title of this show and the clout it has in the industry, it is a mistake to work here. Everyone is morally bankrupt and when you start as an assistant, no one has your back. If you mess up you’re out the door without warning or explanation.

Overall it is a fun place to work because you see some cool people, but you work almost everyday of the week for extensive hours. The social aspect is really difficult to navigate as well. There also is not much room for growth. 

I love saturday night live it is a great place to work with amazing staff and customers. It is fast pace,fun, exciting, and you make great money. It is very competitive but that keeps you  working even harder to make sure you are on top.

I've worked here off & on for 9years and management is great. The girls are awesome and are very helpful they have always been understanding when it comes to scheduling I like love it here never worked at another club

The hours are extreme and difficult. Sometimes you can work up to 18 hours straight, but after not have anything to do for a week. The people are nice, but it is hectic.

This place is awesome. A dream come true. So blessed and grateful! I love the actors staff and Lorne❤️. He’s so professional, smells great and allows me to be me.
