Pros
Amazing feel of community and culture. Lots of people here complaining about Horsham but they obviously haven’t been to other studios where they are even more remote! Horsham is a small town and most people who are here long term live in the area. Pub is always full with CA employees etc, there are great friends to be made. Not everything has to be in London Pay is actually pretty good for programmers, not quite banking level but that’s the industry. Starts of small but ramps up quickly if you get suck in and push for it. Great games and SEGA is willing to invest in the company
Cons
Technical debt is huge for some franchises, but the wheels are starting to turn on this and upper management are taking it seriously. Pay and performance reviews are very meh, very little explanation of why you’re paid what you are unless you really ask
