Pros

Well organized division of labor, with mature HR Causal atmosphere laid back work ethic during down periods especially between releases Fun people, over all smart, dedicated and creative Every manager gets an Xbox or playstation installed in their office

Cons

Key people don't take job seriously, literally play games all day.. Even if not their job Very political for such a laid back environment Petty squabbles never handled by flip-flop wearing management While foot soldiers are very dedicated, upper management is not in touch with realities often within own teams

Pros

- Great people. Most will bend over backwards to help keep the boat afloat. - Great perks. The kitchen is always stocked with snacks and the parties are lavish. - Benefits and 401k are top notch.

Cons

- Little or no work/life balance unless you're a director or above. - Terrible "ends justifies the means" culture. - Virtually no paid leave for maternity. - Woman treated as second class citizens. - Only one person is trained to handle a specific job making it impossible to take vacation or sick days.
