Pros

The benefits at Blizzard were amazing, not just the PTO and insurance, but having a gym to work out in, the cafe to eat healthy in and being encouraged to play games in your free time. Working with world-class people (even though many are gone now). Making life long friends and being apart of a community where you get to create and support something you are truly passionate about.

Cons

Male dominated, driven and chauvinistic approach to leadership and management. Favoritism of employees, even if they are not performing well. Managers who are not qualified to lead a team and ostracize their employees. And a breakdown in culture and core values. SO many long time (10-15 year+) employees have been leaving the company, voluntarily over the past year. It no longer feels like a dream job to want to work at anymore.

No Longer What it Used to Be

Pros

You get to work on childhood classics if you grew up playing the games or if you're a current fan right now.

Cons

The old "Blizzard culture" is no longer present in the company and everything has become profit and income focused over quality.
