Activision reviews

If you're coming in anything below mid-level, this is a maddeningly frustrating place to try and make a career from the ground up. You'll hear stories about how some people did that "back in the day", but the reality is that that's no longer a possibility no matter how you shine. On a base level, the company doesn't seem to care about a lot of their employees. They have some great policies and perks which might make it seem like they do, but once you get a glimpse beyond that, not so much. The ideal situation should be a balance between what's needed from the employee for the company's well-being, and some level of concern for employee development. The second I've often seen fall by the wayside for many people here. It doesn't always happen, depending on luck, your role, your department - but in many cases it does.

No decision making abilities until you are at a Director level or above. Work/life balance can be difficult, not a place I would recommend for anyone who wants to be home by 6 to have dinner with the family every night. Very difficult to get promoted, and HR department will actively work against you (surprisingly have a lot more say over promotions than your direct manager).
