Pros

Bragging rights, free games, and good health care plan. They also have company parties and other special events through out the year.

Cons

Lack of care for employees, ignores most feed back. They act like the really care about you till you really need a break/helping hand. They won't hesitate to fire you when you show first signs of fatigue or weakness.

Pros

Tons of different departments to see and explore career paths. Company offers a lot of different learning and development courses throughout the year. Company has a health/wellness program to get gamers moving.

Cons

Work/life balance takes a hit depending upon the team. Platform Services department is mostly based on who you know to get advanced. Whereas hard work, contributing when asked, is not recognized. Compensation is a yearly question that appears in surveys, but never gets resolved. Throughout the year employer delivers taxable goods (i.e. - free games, books) that employee doesn't have a say whether or not they want it. This is considered a part of the employee's salary/benefits.
