Feels like a company trying to find it's identity

Pros

you work everyday with extremely smart and engaged people. The employees are absolute gaming consumers and genuinely want to make cool stuff. Lots of passionate people that are inspiring to be around.

Cons

On a corporate level it feels like we're looking for an identity. And there are lots of very smart people executing on things blindly based on what sometimes feels like senior management "spaghetti against the wall" mandate.

Pros

Working on games can be fun. It's nice to work for a company people have heard of. Free and cheap games.

Cons

Bloated team sizes and development costs. Easy to be over managed. Keep making the same mistakes over and over. Slow to react to the changing market. No emphasis on work/life balance.
