in reply to Would you work at a porn company?

I am guessing that the company is listed on the stock exchange as 'Girls with big Bazonkas corp.' but has a rather more mudane corporate title. I suggest that when you write your résumé you use the plain name.

It's also worth pointing out that there are varying degrees of pornography. Playboy, for example, is unlikely to spark much controversy. An on-line publication featuring borderline illegal hardcore is less likely to get by on a CV.

At the end of the day any job pays the bills and you may end up with some valuable experience that you can use in other jobs further down the line.

    At least not in civilized countries. But in the USA, even "Cosmopolitan" has the front-text covered by some super markets because it may contain words that will damage the soul of the children. Playboy isn't sold at such super market. And I'm not talking about a small community in the bible belt - but big city east coast USA. But what do you expect from a country that has had a "nipple gate"?

    Of course, the newsstand two blocks futher has an impressive collection of porn magazines.

    I don't mind porn. It's teddy bears where I draw the line.

      The stores I shop at put a board over the covers of any magazines that have scantily clad women (and men? doesn't seem to be a regular occurrence in practice.) So some issues are obscured and some are not.
        yes i need to job for porn movies
