Pros

I've been with Riot for a little over four years and it's really changed my perspective on work as a while. I used to think of company values as just a marketing thing (makes sense--I'm in marketing), but at Riot I've found that Riot's values (Player Experience First, etc) are actually meaningful. People actually believe in what they're doing and delivering for players. And Riot knows that doing that means hiring great people, paying them well, and avoiding industry issues like crunch.

Cons

The company has gotten big and it's not easy to get things done. There are a lot of stakeholders who all care a lot. So sometimes it feels like there's red tape to cut to get things done.

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.
