Great people, bad leadership

Pros

The heart of the company is trying to be different from the normal grind of this industry. The promise was that people come first and there is healthy work-life balance. The promise was that we'd be working on the top tier of cutting edge projects and technology. And a lot of this was true. The talent is truly amazing and most people are very kind to one another.

Cons

The reality is that the leadership is unfocused and leaves the company doing too many different things and none of them with true excellence. Magnopus doesn't know if it's a game studio, a visual effects studio, a software company, or something altogether different. This lead often to frustration and confusion amongst employees. Some of the top leadership just seem overwhelmed and don't truly care. I wish it had been a better experience and lived up to what was promised in the interview.

Pros

Working on the forefront of technology, having the chance to learn new things on a regular basis

Cons

Sometimes because of being on the edge the goal posts move, this can be annoying, so you need to learn to roll with it.
