Pros

The pay is fair, crunch is light, and they take care of their employees. People enjoy working here. This is company is like a family. Unlike any other company for which I have ever worked.

Cons

They are not independent. This is not much of a con, as their relationship with their publisher is outstanding, but I was required to enter 5 words for Cons.

Pros

Firaxis had a diverse set of engineers coming from different philosophical backgrounds. As a developer, this forces you to think about problems from an angle that you may have overlooked. The people at the company are excellent, both within their fields of expertise and as individuals working together. The studio has a very tight knit feel, and has maintained that feeling through a period of growth. Honest discussion is encouraged.

Cons

The compensation is low for the amount of work and domain knowledge that is required for the position. It frequently feels like there is far too much to do and not enough time to get it done. The work-life balance at the studio is good, but not as good as I had hoped it expected coming into the position.
