Pros

Empowerment, autonomy, exciting work, cutting edge product, work-life balance, transparency from leadership, inspiring CEO and management, incredibly smart team members, all the superficials: beautiful offices, drinks/snacks/lunches, roof deck, game rooms ... honestly, everything is a pro.

Cons

Absolutely no cons unless you don't like to be empowered, trusted, challenged, supported, recognized, fed and love your day to day life and career progression.

Pros

-Free snacks, food. -Occasional disorganized “ town-hall meetings”

Cons

-Where to start, let’s start with the culture decline. This review title was spot on -Management is untrained, unethical and is out for themselves. Watch your back at all costs. -HR clearly writes reviews on here. There are so many unhealthy and overworked employees. Walking through the halls of the office is similar to a ghost town -Elaborating on the ghost town, it use to be a happy town until HR completly terrified everyone with upper leadership guiding the way -No work-life balance, boundaries are no existent. -Way too many opportunities to access adults beverages and no sensitive to non-drinkers

It’s hard for me to reply to this review and the other reviews you wrote. I can see you are angry and seem to be in pain, which troubles me. From time to time we have employees who find themselves on a team or project that they aren’t happy about. They go to their manager or if their manager is the problem they go to the next level leader, another leader, HR or even our CEO. Unity is a very approachable culture. I’m not sure why you don’t feel you can do that but encourage you to try it. I promise you if you reach out to me or even John, you will be listened to and get an immediate response. The conversation will be confidential. Unity is filled with examples of employees sharing what’s not working as well as what is. They are engaged in making it better. If you join one of our internal Slack channels and in the round tables you would see the tremendous passion from the employees both for our customers but also for our company. Massive passion and pride. It would be great if you can reach out so we can address your situation. Elizabeth Brown--Unity Head of HR

Sad to see the downward spiral

Pros

The office provides good refreshments, cold-brew coffee, lunch. Also every Wednesday it offers breakfast (and cereal and milk are always available). Benefits are good and the company is even generous on holidays.

Cons

It's sad to see this downward spiral that the company is going along. As some comments mentioned, the upper management doesn't set a clear goal with expectations, and then it leads to ugly politics as if every team's goal is to look after themselves and maximize their territory. The company really has a big execution problem: it occupies a great spot in the gaming industry and then what? We got pumped up after the Pokemon Go craze, having hired a lot of people and many employees, who are also fans of Unity, having embraced the optimism as well as empowerment. Now, there comes the reality check? BTW, the Glassdoor rating comes from 4.6 to 3.8 (as of today) in a year. I have to say the HR plays a role here. Many other reviews said so and I think I can actually prove it from the HR response here at Glassdoor. "...Regarding reviews, our HR team is focused on things like culture, training, and benefits, and doesn't have the time to write reviews- plus there are technology filters and algorithms the site has set up to detect fraud..." - May 31, 2018 Unity Technologies What did I see? Dishonesty in bold capital letters. Why? You are a Unity HR employee (not Glassdoor) so how do you know "this site" has set up "technology filters and algorithms" to detect fraud? Did you actually try that (if so, it's a serious integrity issue and more) ? If not, you are just dishonest and want to respond whatever looks good to yourself to show Unity is in good shape. Also, while your HR team is so much focused, you still have time writing responses on Glassdoor (it doesn't take more time to write a 5-star all-good review, plus you can ask others to write). So, people are not stupid. That is exactly how Unity HR handle things.
