      Pros

      Most of the people working here are amazing at their jobs and great to work with. It's also cool to work on huge brands in gaming. Pay is at industry standard. Like most jobs, if you have a good manager then life can be pretty good.

      Cons

      Everyone is overworked and it always feels like you're not doing enough no matter how much you deliver. It seems like every team takes on too much in order to impress leadership, which takes a heavy toll on those working in more junior roles.

      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.
