      Pros

      None really worth mentioning here

      Cons

      Extremely frustrating work environment. Hostility abounds. Severe lack of talent due to extremely high turn over rate. You soon find out that nothing here is as it appears. Any good impressions you had of Razer are based on an illusion and it will never be whatever you were expecting. If you try to fix things you just end up with a gaping hole where your soul used to be. Don't even bother because it will slowly kill you! This all makes it impossible to be effective in your job.

      Pros

      If you are a yes man who just wants to fly under the radar and collect a measly paycheck, don't want to think for yourself, want to have to ask permission to do every part of your job, or if you care nothing for doing good work, then you will probably like working here.

      Cons

      * very low pay vs industry standard * the people aren't necessarily overflowing with talent- they are mostly just entry level people or whoever would accept the low pay that was being offered * micromanagement to the point you feel you can't breath * no opportunity for growth or advancement * abusive work place * too much office politics * senior management looks after their personal interests only and makes bad business decisions * extremely high turn over rate due to all the problems above CEO wants to be the next Steve Jobs but doesn't have the talent or the know-how. He runs the company like a spoiled rotten 5 year old- throwing tantrums when he doesn't get his way. This is why they are constantly burning through the investor money and his parent's real estate fortune. GM is a crook and everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie. He is steeling from the company and it's customers in every way imaginable so he can collect his fat commission checks. Nobody is interested in relocating to Irvine to work for you or the maniac you are letting run the company into the ground. Bring back Razer Guy!

      Doesn't treat employees well

      Pros

      If you don't have much experience and are looking for work in the gaming industry it's much easier to get in here. Razer tends to hire inexperienced people due to not wanting to pay much in salary. Other than that, they offer some free lunches and Razer looks great on a Resume.

      Cons

      Upper management will degrade and beat down on you every chance they get and practically never offer praise. Employees are told that the only way to do well in their jobs is to throw out any resemblance of a work life balance with which no additional compensation will ever be offered for. Director level positions are like chopping blocks with new Directors being brought in yearly. Lower level employees usually last under 2 years. Employees are constantly looking for new jobs. There is little to no opportunity for career advancement and if you are offered "career advancement" it is in title only. This company does not offer raises other than cost of living. Additionally, this company often will bring people on offering a full time work on a "3 month temp to hire" contract and never take employees off temporary status because they don't want them to have benefits or appear as more than contract work on the books.
