Pros

Riot games is a company with a really strong culture and values, and that always fascinate me. I rarely saw in a company that many people so passionate for their job and that is definitely one of the key element of Riot success.

Cons

As it is getting older and most probably because of Tencent(owner), things are changing and Riot is slowly losing its identity, if until one year ago, culture and values were driving the decisions, that is slowly turning into a more business driven decisions.

Pros

The people. So nice, so passionate (albeit in pockets). Benefits! Great insurance and vacation.

Cons

Quite corporate. Rigid structure. There is reluctance to take risks. Difficult to move between projects or roles as a producer.

Pros

Great benefits, pays well, can work on some very interesting problems.

Cons

Work hours are from 10-7 and hardly anyone actually works that, so stuff can move at a snail pace. Getting help from central teams can be painful, especially if they're way off hours. Some of the culture can get a bit overwhelming too and you can end up feeling pretty lonely if you don't drink the koolaid.
