      Truly about business - Anonymous employee Activision Employee Review

      Pros

      Learned so many new skills and met some great developers (the true heroes). Can be a jumping off point if you survive the cons

      Cons

      Complicated report structures, documentation all over the place, no cohesive standards amongst all studios, and only a COD factory. Activision owns an unbelievable amount of IP that they refuse to reuse because it doesn't bring in money. Quick to burnout employees and corporate pushes back against unionization.

      Pros

      Love to work within gaming, office is nice, and analytics function is strong. Company events are a plus, as are perks for games and Microsoft items.

      Cons

      Annual layoffs, can usually expect 1,000 or more people let go across XGS with a hundred or so from Activision. Work-life balance could be better, and compensation is squarely median or a bit lower for the industry.
