Pros

Freedom to choose what to work on, no BS layers of management to slow you down, relaxed culture with possibilities to travel and/or work remote if its your thing. Engineers are all super talented.

Cons

Used to be a 5 star company, but growth has brought in a bit more politics and some agility loss, so only 4 stars now for me.

Business is fantastic and we are experiencing continued strong growth. Senior leaders are taking conscious steps to ensure that employees are empowered to do their best work while staying true to our core mission to democratize gaming. Thanks for your hard work and for taking a moment to review Unity.

Company Culture Has Been Destroyed

Pros

- Absolutely phenomenal community. - Outstanding colleagues (most of them). - Insanely intelligent people.

Cons

- Politics have become paramount; if you're not good at playing corporate politics, you won't last long, despite your talents/success in your role. - Culture has become incredibly corporate; family feeling has been largely lost, though this varies by office. - Abysmal stock options plans ("insulting" I have heard some employees say). - Poor bonus structure that doesn't reward the true talent in the company. - No 401K matching/generally poor benefits (though again better in some offices than in others). - You're one misstep away from being terminated, with no mentoring by senior management on how to improve. - Management says one thing, often means something completely different. - Company has strayed from its vision of "democratizing game development" by straying away from the core product while making it more accessible, while funneling developers in to their services offerings, at the expense of other options (this is not "democracy").

Pros

Unity is growing a lot these days - adding people, products and services. It's a very exciting time and the energy here is high. There is always plenty to do.

Cons

Because we are growing quickly, we're also experiencing a few growing pains as we figure out how to maintain the indie/startup culture.
