I have been hearing from manwin employees for ages, usually it’s mostly disgruntled stuff so I decided to check into it, because there was a very high rate it seemed. So I go over to ratemyemployer.ca to have a look. WOW
Here’s just a FEW
“Absolute scum. They’ve been posting-and reposting-the same 5 ads over and over for the last 2 years. The turnover rate must be through the roof at this brothel. These charletons called me and told me to write up an article for them and then show up for an interview. I spent 2 hours writing an article and as I was getting ready to leave for the interview I get a call from the receptionist telling me that the position was filled that morning and that she had completely forgotten. Bullshit! You call me at 10:00 in the morning to set up an interview for 1:00 and then call me up 2 and a half hours later to tell me the position was filled at 9:30?! WTF? Stay the hell away from these wretched deviants.”
“Pay at this place is REALLY low if you work as a developer, and most managers are a JOKE.”
“This place is full of inexperienced managers and promotions are political. Salaries are also below the industry, overall this is a great for inexperience people who want to move on to better things after working a few months there.”
“Been Here Long Enough to Witness the Transformation of this Once Great Company with a Huge Potential, into the Corporate Bureaucratic Political Mess it has Unfortunately turned into.
Nepotism runs rampant there, and one’s opportunities for advancements can easily be interfered by Upper Management’s choice of placing a Friend/Relative/Neighbor at that said spot instead.
Pay is Way Below Industry Standards, unless you are placed by Upper Management by default (Friend/Relative/Neighbor)
The Inexperience and Obvious Incompetence of some of the managers, some even Upper Managers, in this Company only adds Insult to injury: They Get the Credit, and therefore the Rewards that come with it, and us little minions get the Blame should their decisions turn out Sour.
And another Ironic Fact is how they cannot justify Raises to their employees that work above and beyond their call of duty, yet the managers blatantly and shamelessly go on in Lavish outings (Lunches at Rib N Reef 3-5 times/week, Bentley for them to drive around town, Trips in Private Planes, Mercedes Benz for their Nannies.”
“The fact that free breakfasts are offered in the morning is simply an attempt to placate their employees by masking how low their salaries are when compared to any similar company. On top of that, the management is quite incompetent (most likely due to nepotism) and often the left hand has no idea what the right hand is doing.
The sad part of working at Manwin is that they truly attempt to hide that they are actually a porn company. From the postings on Craig’s List that make no mention of this fact, to their website that is designed to make it appear as though they are simply a search engine optimization company, they try to deny that they are actually a XXX company. This is why so few people have pride in the company and there is such a revolving door of employees.”
“ATMOSPHERE F-
CREATIVITY F-
BENEFITS F-
There’s something to be said when everyone comes in depressed.
I’ve worked elsewhere where people like going into work.
Anyone unhappy here clearly has worked elsewhere.
A total hole folks – a total hole!”
“If you are gay. Don’t work there. If you want to take a legally entitled break without getting fired. Don’t work there. If you want to work with bosses that appreciate you. Don’t you work there. If you value being treated like a person, and not cattle. Don’t work there. If you expect your employer to follow certain ethical and moral codes. Don’t work there. If you want to get paid less than you are worth, get worked over time hours without getting paid and you enjoy being screamed at every day by your egotistical boss. TOTALLY work there.”
Ok from here you get the idea….Whats interesting is that Fabian chimed in on a few of those threads (believe me I recognize his drivel….um writing, I see it all the time.) But it does occur to me why would anyone expect them to respect their employees? They don’t respect anyone, they willingly deal in content that they know they dont have the rights to.
But there maybe a light at the end of the tunnel, it seems the FBI made a statement in a recent story that they were being careful not to jeopardize an ongoing investigation in an adult company with ties to laundering money through Isreal….Interesting….Mansef which was Manwin before Fabian was put in place forfeited over 12 million dollars to make illegal money transfer charges go away…the country they were laundering through…Isreal.





There was a newspaper article 12-18 months ago reporting that the US Govt. was trying to find out who the real owners of Manwin are. The company had some sort of smoke and mirrors shell corporation system in place to hide who is really in charge.
Near as they could tell (in the newspaper article) the leads led to gangsters out of the Middle East.
@MikeSouth1226 I can honestly say people really enjoy working there…they treat people great…
Amazing how their attitude on their employees seems to somewhat parallel all the articles coming out about employees at Walmart. Almost seems like a similar philosophy. Anyone care to express an opinion of what would happen to the porn industry if in fact the FBI takes Manwin down?
What would happen if the FBI took Manwin down?
Ummmm epic parties?
Celebrations across the galaxy a la the end of Return of the Jedi?
Out of 5 postings here you get one British performer/director from Manwin-Brazzers telling us they are treated great..compare to the people who really work in those office like Burbank and other locations.
I can really see this company going down really hard for money laundering and piracy and probably being involved in terrosim too.
Nathan( FABIAN) we all know you read this, ARE U A TERRORIST??
Manwin hire pond scum replace any good people they have fire or let go when take over porn inusdrty companys that they have bought. Is there any reason that pond scum porn rejects that hire run there porn indusrty company would have want or care how they treat there employees. If look guy who runing Digital Playground right now Scott Justice he has long history be head guy no one want work for last company porn company he was in charge of Sin City. If take deep look at all othere people run all other porn indusrty company Manwin owens come up list rejects that none othere porn company would hire at all. But Manwin got major issue seem one US major bank has tip off feds about credit card billing practices. The rumor is ever major abc US goverment law enforcement agency is now taking good look in Manwin business practices. Rumor is there looking at ever stock holder investor in Manwin.
I’ve heard different things from different people about the real Manwin work experience. What I can say for sure is that on the lower end of things, they aren’t so great. Their new hires come in at significantly lower wages than the normal industry folk get, this really is true and even worse they aren’t trained. Anyone try and have a coherent convo with the new affiliate guy from DP and not laugh? But on the other end of things, I heard the higher you get the better things get for you within the company. Don’t know any specifics but that’s what I’m told.
It’s difficult to gauge just how representative the comments may be. Those that are disgruntled are far more likely to speak out than those that are not.
I know one person that now works for Manwin. He was with Twistys before they were sold to Manwin. He’s given no indication that he’s unhappy.
Manwen staff now mix group cast aways that once used work for Jules Jordan Sin City. You can see some where Jules Jordan is laugh ass off becuase people that Manwen hire away from his company cheaply he would fire for free very same reasons list above. When staff made up ever cast off reject in porn indusrty that only care about them self nothing about rest porn indusrty than have work force that Manwen has working for it. Manwen very transparent company work for long you kiss there butt work for mini wage realize the only way gone rise top in that company buy working for some one else. To those working at top Manwen ladder realize this if your company get caughty doing any thing illegal you get be once face off with us law enforcement agencies that gone be come after porn company. Acting stupid about what company did or did not do not gone save from rico case that well bring againts your company. Fabian well be happy send you all thank you note from Guantanamo Bay cube as hang all out dry over matter.
I’d work for Manwin if they’d hire me. A job is a job and if you work hard things will always be better for you.
Kelli, what do I need to know in order to work in adult web design/internet marketing? Is a degree preferred? I’m currently taking web/programming courses now…
I know a few former Digital Playground employees who moved to Manwin and they are actually quite unhappy. I’ve heard already half of the DP employees who moved to Manwin have already left the company. It’s a shame because DP was once on the top of the adult industry setting standards and now Manwin turned it into a bottom feeder. Not sure who is to blame at Manwin… you can blame Fabian, Scott Justice, etc… but regardless Manwin seemed to have turned it into a failure.
Origen01, Don’t put youself in that enviroment. The cost of living in LA and or the valley is through the roof and you’ll be popping anti-depressants after working there.
They place really sucks and Manwin is going to be around very long.
