      Pros

      The typical bay area perks: lunch, snacks, beer & wine. Fun events organized by WE team. Pretty generous PTO, float and sick days. 401k and matching. No dinner though. 4 stars! There is endless list of projects to work on. If you love work and are not afraid to take on technical projects. Unity does not disappoint in this department. Plenty of learning experience can be acquired here. 4 Stars.

      Cons

      - Compensation: Base salary is alright but stock option package is peanuts compared to other late stage startups (Uber, Lyft, etc). We're talking about 3K ish for non-senior and 10K ish for seniors. That is roughly $20K and $70K over 4 years respectively. No target bonus. No transparency around level & compensation band. One star. Or perhaps zero. - Career Opportunities: Terrible. No clear path to promotion. Performance review process is terrible terrible terrible. Managers aren't trained well enough to give meaningful feedback. ZERO here. - Work Life Balance: I've been asked to review codes on weekends and holidays. Don't be surprised if your manager asks you to "go the extra mile" (hint hint). One star. - Manager: Been with three different managers. All seem to lack basic project management skills. Some don't have the technical prowess to lead projects to completion. Some don't know what the product does. Shudder. One star. - Senior management: No comment. Three stars. - Culture & Values: Too much drama and politics but I do enjoy working with my pod-mates though. They cool. Tres stars here. Final result is 2 stars.

      This is John R, CEO Unity. Thanks for writing the review. Good to have feedback. A few quick thoughts: 1) A few people from Unity suggested i look at GD to read the reviews. 2) I see you and a few others are having a bad experience, especially as it relates to work / life balance. 3) I've done small round table meetings (5 to 12 in each meeting) with in total > 250 people in SF and Bellevue in the last 4 months. I have also done many 1:1 office meetings with front line engineers and product team members. Most report / share an experience that is largely positive to very positive. 4) When i do hear of problems, we try to fix them as quickly as possible. 5) WRT to career opportunities, the data i have shows a huge number of internal promotions, in engineering, in sales, in the monetization team, etc. My suggestion -- if you do have concerns or feel you are not enjoying your job, or feel the work / life balance is off, Slack me directly or email me directly. We'll set time to have a confidential discussion (no, i won't tell anyone), and we can work to solve the problem. John

      Pros

      Nice company , great office location. The people are nice (sometimes) . Catered food everyday.

      Cons

      CEO works in this office and doesn't makes it a point to say hello to people. Will not utter two words to people in the office. Is not very pleasant At ALL. Management is unorganized All day EVERYDAY emails.

      Pros

      Competitive salary Great managers in the DOTS and External Productions org Very flexible wellness plan 100% coverage for mental health with one medical benefits option Encourages internal mobility Executive level management feels more accessible Feels like there is a lot of potential for improvement, opportunities to contribute

      Cons

      Serious issues with the diversity and inclusion team, in the last year that entire team of people has left the company or moved to other teams within the company, currently there are 2 D&I team members, both new Seemingly endless reorgs that are extremely disruptive Culture of the company has dramatically shifted away from prioritizing games A member of executive leadership was explicitly dismissive of console game production generally, while teams at Unity are actively working on that type of game with partners Company seems more focused on long term growth as opposed to ensuring the products it makes are to quality Painful hiring shortages, getting headcount is like pulling teeth Executive leadership is out of touch with marginalized employees to the point where they have been offensive and actively harmful in some cases No tuition reimbursement plan Contracts with the US military, oil and gas companies Executive leadership pretends to offer transparency, but does not take the issues that employees have seriously
