A few pros but a lot of cons

Pros

- A fun place to work. People are very nice and approachable. This is the best part about Unity. - Food is pretty good but if you work late they don't provide dinner. - Snack quality is declining but it's there. - Paid health insurance. 100 bucks wellness benefits and 401k matching. - Work life balance is pretty good if you end up on the right team.

Cons

- Filter out all the fake reviews that are obviously posted by recruiters trying to bank some commission. There are lots of them and they are not accurate portrayal of what's going on inside Unity. - Low caliber talent pool. Unity is desperate for coders and the hiring bar has suffered as a result of that. It's hard to count on people to get their stuff done. - Performance review is extremely unstructured. It's very hard to take perf review seriously at Unity. Whatever you say will go unnoticed and it seems to have no effect towards compensation. - Low caliber managers. Anyone .... literally anyone can become a manager at Unity. If you want a 'lead' title, Unity shall provide. If you suck, no worries there is no consequence. You can always revert back to IC. - Last but not least, if you are financially motivated. This is not the place for you. No target bonus. Compensation change is rare and stock package is a joke.

Toxic workplace

Pros

lunch, health benefits, office close to bart

Cons

No work life balance and no compensation review. Performance reviews are useless. You have to deal with incompetent managers and people with no business in managerial role. Promotions are handed out to the loudest people who play politics the most.

Unity was ONCE a great place

Pros

amazing people, challenging problems, great benefits and delicious food

Cons

Where did everything go wrong? - culture and employee happiness isn't on managements list at all. Everyone I've spoken to is disgruntled, looking for a new job, or dragging their feet just to get by. Unity's BLIND page is a sad example of how unhappy and TOXIC employees are - recruiting lies to us telling us that equity is worth something, when in fact, after you join you realize your options aren't worth anything close to what you gave up - 3Qs or "review cycles" rarely ever happen, and when they do nothing comes out of them. You'd be lucky to get inflation raises - Why is every team so silo'ed and unwilling to help other teams? I get that teams have to take care of themselves, but we all work at the same place so we should be helping each other - I had to work most weekends and through PTO because people didn't know how to fill in and do their jobs. 0 work life balance - 0 career growth and well below market compensation
