Pros

- Amazing group of people who are passionate about what they do. Was lucky to work with a talented group of young developers, and management that challenges you to grow. - Fair compensation and generous bonuses provided. - Great work life balance. Crunches were rare and usually a result of poor planning on my own part. - Great support network provided by the CARE team

Cons

- Company recently moved in a new direction and it feels like some of the details still need to be hammered out

Pros

If you are looking for an organization that truly prioritizes its people and their well-being, Valicy stands out. While I am still relatively new in my role and cannot yet speak to long-term tenure, it was evident from my very first interview through the onboarding process that the company places significant emphasis on culture, collaboration, and character. Valicy is intentional about hiring individuals who align with its collaborative and team-oriented values. Technical expertise and industry experience are clearly important, but cultural alignment, humility, and leadership approach appear to carry equal weight in the evaluation process. This commitment helps foster an environment free from ego-driven behaviors, toxic leadership styles, and unnecessary micromanagement. Under Garrett’s leadership as CEO, cultivating a positive and healthy work culture is clearly a strategic priority rather than a slogan. That focus is consistently reflected across the leadership team. The use of personality assessments during onboarding further reinforces the organization’s thoughtful approach to team dynamics and long-term success. In an industry centered on entertainment and engagement, Valicy demonstrates that building an exceptional internal culture is foundational to delivering outstanding external results. Many companies—particularly within gaming—could benefit from adopting a similarly people-first mindset.

Cons

None whatsoever at this time.
