VTech Holdings reviews

A few weeks before shipment, overseas staff can request to change the product design from scratch. One week before mass product, CEOs can ask to change everything. Game designers usually don't communicate well with overseas and CEO at the project start. They will just tell the whole team to change all the time.

The over whelming talent and skill of recruits means that you are constantly in competition for your designs. This often means working in excess of 65 to 70+ hours a week (including weekends) just to maintain the same level of quality. This obviously can take a toll on your health as well as your social life. Overtime within the department is not recognize which is a contradiction to the written company policy for over time. Over time within the department in never directly quoted - instead is implied by unrealistic deadlines by middle managers. Salary although not always a key motivational factor is still low in comparison for the number of hours a regular hard working recruit does. There is often no feedback form middle managers on a project by project basis or even on a personal annual review. Due to the competitive nature of the department, design is often done in complete isolation from other members following a very closed-innovation process approach with no collaboration work or input from other team members until a final review by top management. As a result of these factors turn over is very short 2 years at best.
