Pros

Control and Decision-Making Power: Employers have the authority to make key decisions about the direction of the business, including strategic planning, resource allocation, and policy setting. They can shape the company culture and values, aligning the organization with their vision and goals. Potential for Higher Earnings: As business owners, employers have the opportunity to earn more than typical employees, especially if the business is successful. They benefit directly from the profits and growth of the company, which can lead to substantial financial rewards.

Cons

High Responsibility and Risk: Employers are responsible for the overall success and failure of the business, bearing the burden of financial risks and liabilities. They must manage various challenges, such as market fluctuations, competition, and economic downturns, which can impact business stability. Time and Stress Management: Running a business often requires long hours, including evenings and weekends, leading to a poor work-life balance. Employers face constant stress from managing employees, meeting client demands, and ensuring operational efficiency, which can affect personal well-being.

Pros

There are honestly some very talented engineers working at IGT who you can learn a lot from.

Cons

Everything else is a con. -The managers here are downright incompetent, or downright put in a bad situation where they have to manage multiple people. -Usually merging between two companies never ends up well, but it's worse when you get laid off for no reason aside from: "we want to save money" -Tech stack is so vastly outdated and the directors/ management never seem to want to do anything about making this a better work environment. -Lack of communication. -Special Treatment of certain studios/ candidates. -This is the only company that made me have trust issues with people or managers or anything of the like. There is usually politics in play at companies, but with IGT, it's worse, a lot worse. -The hiring process was rigorous, yet the company showed little regard for retaining or supporting employees. After being laid off, there was virtually no communication or explanation. It's difficult to understand why the company invests so much effort in hiring talented people only to treat layoffs as an afterthought. Employees deserve transparency and respect throughout the process. The company has significant work to do in how it values and communicates with its workforce. Kindly learn to read a resume before you hire someone. -Poor executive leadership from the CEO (Hector Fernandez) and CTO has resulted in an outdated technology stack, low morale, and a lack of long-term engineering vision. If leadership is unwilling to address these issues, they should resign and allow people who are committed to improving the company to take over.
