Glu Mobile reviews

Communication between studios and corporate in SF is abysmal. A breakdown between the C-Suite level and the studio leadership can doom projects and the jobs of the people working on them. Performance standards are uneven between studios and making it very clear which titles are the pet projects. It's worth also looking at their insane commitment to celebrity titles - they're known as the company that developed the highly successful Kim Kardashian game. Since the success of that title, they have invested their entire future into celebrity titles. However, since the success of KKH, not a single one of their celebrity deals has actually translated into financial success and this is probably because "# of followers on Facebook" isn't a key indicator for success... and they might have known this if their market research and data analytics weren't in the stone age. Finally, it's worth mentioning the huge data breach where pretty much everyone who worked for Glu in 2015 had their W-2s uploaded to an external website. It's hard to pick which of Glu's many failings to attribute this blunder to, so I'll leave it to the imagination.

Pay is very low compared to other companies in the industry. Higher management has been making bad decisions. Constant company "restructuring" causes a lot of people to lose their jobs on the spot. Lay offs are always a surprise, they call you in the HR office you come out minutes after and you immediately clean out your desk the same day.
