Pros

Nothing that any other company does not have. Maybe the SEGA steam catalog for free is good,

Cons

- If you are an artist, stay away from this place, they don't care at all about improving in any department. - All the senior members and above are incompetent and just rised to their actual position from staying in that mediocre environment and structure, so they don't actually know what their role require and demands. - Old technology that will not help you to improve and learn actual pipelines and softwares that will get you a job in the future in another company. - Money badly spent in the meaningless stuff when the critical ones are left unattended, hence the complain on not raising already low salaries and any other thing they would promise. - Bad salaries and not based on your skill or level, so everything gets averaged down for the unskilled and lazy ones. - No one wants to look for improvement, and if you try your best on bringin a change, you will be look down bad and talked bad on your back. - A structured company that can't shift the boat when sinking, and they use the same structure to hide behind it and not take action. - Upper management is the worst, no one knows what to do, and they choose their middle management base on their own interest, so you can't get them to listen through middle managment. - They are trying to implement AI at all cost.

Pros

Has been a secure place to work in the past. Recent troubles aside. Somewhat people focused.

Cons

Far less secure in recent times. The risk of very likely mass redundancies for the first time in the companies history. Far more corporate in nature than it has been historically. Seemingly uncontrollable, and evidently unsustainable, expansion.
