Pros

You have the opportunity to work on some great IP's! A lot of talented entry level and mid level co workers that are amazing to work with and

Cons

Threats of layoffs and studio closures always looming! I won multiple awards and was even honored company wide for my achievements/contributions and was still laid off. I wasn't even considered to be placed on another team. Mid/Sr level and executive members in positions of power that are clearly inept and have no buisness being in such roles. The CEO is a buisnessman much like the other Massive studios of today. He doesn't care about creating meaningful experiences, or inovation. Just how quickly can we churn out the next shallow experience of a major IP to milk the consumer with preditory Free to Play monetization strategies that have no buisness being in a Premium AAA title game, to apease to shareholders. You are nothing but an expendable drone, unless you really know someone in a Sr or Executive level position well, and still you won't be safe from the layoff hammer. It can be a fun place to work but be careful!
