Pros

Decent Pay, great co-workers, pretty flexible hours. The studio style building layout is pretty nice and the dress code is relaxed.

Cons

If you are hired here, then you will work nights, weekends and holidays and then be let go when the project is complete. There is No work/life balance and no job security. There have been multiple major layoffs in 2 of the past 3 years during production on a large contract. Healthy companies do not lay off half their workforce at the height of a large-scale production. There is No future here. I’ve never seen lower morale anywhere and management seems to think starting an achievement-based rewards program and executing it exactly one time before stopping the program is a great way to build confidence. It is very possible that you will be shot or solicited by a prostitute in or near the work parking lot.

Pros

My manager was awesome. Job was diverse and creativity was welcomed. Salary was pretty good, even if I was technically doing two types of positions. Co-workers were also good, some great, actually. Work life balance was also pretty good. All credit to that goes to my manager and the managers I've had before my last one.

Cons

In the end, my loyalty seemed to not be valued. My hard work showed and I met deadlines before the due date. Only called in sick when actually sick, and hardly took time off. The thing that bothered me the most was the way they laid me off. Group Teams video meeting, but the person giving us the news was not on video. Just a black screen, telling you that was your last day and that after that meeting your access will be cut off. And it was. I almost felt like an email would've been better than that black screen. That is really the only time I felt bad about the way things went. I know corporate life brings in the usual fiscal year layoffs, but it just felt wrong the way it was done, in my opinion.
