Pros

Incredibly talented and brilliant developers Develop Triple A titles Great network of people to share with and learn from in the DD discipline. Established performance review process with monthly 1-1s for feedback, and to discuss any issues. Casual work atmosphere with flexible schedule around appointments Fantastic recreational perks - gym, indoor basketball court, outdoor soccer pitch, workout classes, etc

Cons

Current leadership has made some bad business decisions that have cost the jobs of thousands Massive organizational changes Poor communication from senior management about how the overall goals/targets of the company are translated down to the game teams Out of touch leadership and with communication skills
