Pros
Excellent benefits and overall the culture was great for the first 2-3 years I worked here. Met some of the best people I've ever worked with in my career that challenged me in a way that motivated me further.
Cons
Pancake layered middle management with "Project Managers" accountable to other managers above them to make any meaningful change within their project structure. Often times these managers knew very little about the software they were attempting to sell contractually. 3D Artist titles did not reflect the true competency of their artistic capabilities between 3D asset creation and game engine pipeline understanding. Often times artists were given title changes based on tenure within the overall 3D industry as opposed to the merit and skill that others advocated to management on their behalf for. I watched a "Senior Artist" not know how to create content iteration efficiency and understand basic game engine runtime optimization techniques. As far as company fiscal responsibility is concerned there is none. This company blew a 5 year allocated contract budget for multiple pieces of software in 2 years. Add on top of that in 2021 the company restructured as an ESOP allowing them to create new floating points of liquidity through debt plus equity after acquiring an Orlando office and a DC satellite office. Keep in mind the ESOP was effectively gatekept from employees based on the amount of shares and value in their account. After paying close attention to the trends and change of language within the company I saw the writing on the wall and left willingly. Two weeks later they fired 47 people across the company and the Orlando office is now effectively a ghost town. Overall, do not trust i3 (Integration Innovation Inc.) with any software need you may think sounds good based on their competitive price ranges. These men have no spine and shame should be on their head for what they've done to their employees.
