Pros

Offer good stock refresher bonus, but it's weirdly applied (either you get 0$, 60k or 120k, nothing in the middle). It can create frustrations in teams. Excellent working condition, forgetting about 2023

Cons

They don't know where they are heading, it's sad to watch. They cleared JR at least, but many rotten apples are still present (Carol, etc.). Rumors go they want to be bought by Meta/Apple etc.

Pros

* worked on really cool tech * the values lived on the team level are absolutely aligned with my personal values (in it together + focus on arriving on the best idea for impact on users) * some wickedly smart people with deep knowledge * name recognition and community goodwill (until unforced error re runtime fee - bad idea, awful execution) * severance was generous

Cons

* base pay was fairly low, so with underperforming stock the total compensation wasn't great (though being part of an amazing team was worth a lot to me) * with going public they also went corporate and the the values are better lived out at the team level than in leadership (though I have hopes for the new CEO Jim Whitehurst - fingers crossed) * little job security with the bonkers amount of layoffs (not just percentage but number of rounds) - they weren't performance based, so if you were on a project that got chopped you were most likely out, unless you could find a different role internally :/ - I survived many cuts until our project got hit.

Pros

You get to work with the brightest minds in the gaming industry

Cons

The company's business is in such a bad shape that we have been through 4 rounds of RIFs in the past year. The more recent one happened in Jan, 2024, with 1,800 people losing their jobs. There's no accountability among the senior management and we suffered from their poor decisions. Pay at Unity is known to be below market average.
