In a 2018 interview, political commentator and news anchor Chris Hayes described Production Workshop as "genuinely one of the most formative and important experiences in my life."

A huge amount of it was getting together with other people in a room to have a meeting to make a decision -- which basically is what all adult life ends up being."
