Aside from all of the involvement with piracy and the arrest of the apparent owner on allegations of tax evasion, they?ve begun taking on unpaid interns to replace the steady stream of workers who have been driven away by poor treatment.

Their corporate structure is opaque. Executive level employees issue instructions and then reprimand lower level workers for following them. The lack of respect with which they treat their crew and staff has begun to show in the lowered product quality, and Big Porn fails to see that the common denominator is, well, them."
