Pros

* Free snacks and drinks. * Co-workers are generally nice, though some are Asbergerish and odd. * Salaries are industry average, PTO and benefits are as well.

Cons

* Poorly run and managed. * Large corporation, no concern for employees. * Only one product, all eggs are in one basket. * Product has been poorly received in marketplace, missed target audience. * Company has had two layoffs since April 2014 game release, with more very likely to come. * Income stream was vastly overestimated, company is being propped up by other divisions in corporation, not likely to continue much longer. * Company has very poor reputation for quality control due to management's refusal to allow polish time of product, release and subsequent updates have been full of major and minor bugs, further alienating target audience.
