Pros

The company is fully staffed and ready to execute all facets of making the game title. There are ton of talented people there. Great campus.

Cons

The temporary employee situation is out of hand. Outsourcing is a logistical headache that seems to be the main method for getting game assets created. This leads to a lack of upward mobility for artists. Tons of people working there are "checked out" and just coasting. Politics of management interfere with getting work done.
