Pros

The work environment is great, with supportive and collaborative co-workers who make teamwork enjoyable. Co-workers are awesome, there are people here who have solid designer mind that is able to create super awesome content

Cons

There are occasional crunch periods, especially during key stages . These moments can be stressful, requiring extra hours to meet deadlines. While they aren’t constant, better planning and resource allocation could help minimize the impact of these crunch periods on the team.

Pros

Great culture within my team and department. Salary was competitive enough, although lower compared to other tech industry and game studios. Blizzard has been through a lot of drama and public issues, but internally they made strides to correct them.

Cons

Went through a lot of layoff waves and more once acquired by Microsoft. Hopefully they stop this pattern. They are also bringing back RTO, and slowly phasing out WFH for most new roles.
