Pros

Good culture, I've never encountered an unfriendly person Competitive salary, excellent benefits

Cons

Poor communication throughout the org, teams are often unaware of when they are overlapping requirements, responsibilities or solutions. Poor accountability, freedom to fail is a good thing but here it leads to people not taking responsibility for their decisions and so we repeat our mistakes. Poor planning, expect to find yourself dropped into slack conversations where no-one is quite sure why they were invited to 'hash things out'

Pros

Benefits, people, leadership (mixed), company values.

Cons

Culture needs work: bullying over slack in public forums by lower and mid-level employees, WAY too much churn on conversation and not enough focus on great work, employee entitlement, communication gaps between levels.

Toxic and untrustworthy (zero stars)

Pros

There are definitely a lot of kind and very smart folks at Unity, unfortunately they are rarely in positions of power in which they could right the ship. Though, many of the good ones have quit or been cut through layoffs (this has created huge knowledge gaps that directly impact the business).

Cons

Very untrustworthy leadership - 3 rounds of layoffs, constant reorgs, no stability and no accountability on their part. The vision coming down from up high changes frequently, disrupting teams who do actual work. Most troubling is a serious communication and trust problem coming from the top down - different teams have conflicting information (or no information) about the directive du jour. It’s a toxic, clique-y company to work for and employees learn to trust no one, and is is truly not a healthy work environment.

My experience

Pros

=> good perks. => Free lunch => Challenging projects

Cons

This is my personal experience. Management is looking for someone who can work 24/7. Planning and organization is really bad. communication between the team members is not very good. Believes in individual work rather than working as a team. Its good for most parts but its hard to collaborate for major projects.

Pros

Supportive company culture that promotes collaboration and innovation Leading platform for game development, VR/AR, and interactive 3D/2D content Opportunities to work on cutting-edge technology and influence future product roadmaps Excellent training programs and resources for professional development Fun perks like gaming rooms, social events, stock options/equity Diverse workforce and openness to new ideas and perspectives Well-known brand with large developer/creator community Good work-life balance for some teams/roles (where applicable)

Cons

Communication and transparency issues from leadership/management Decision-making can feel opaque and top-down Priorities seem to shift drastically and unexpectedly Lack of accountability for management shortcomings Workload and expectations increased unreasonably Engineering support/resources not keeping pace with product demands Short-term thinking tied to stock price rather than long-term strategy Company growth contributing to chaotic, uncoordinated teams Salary/equity packages less competitive recently Excessive cost-cutting impacting workforce morale/retention
