Pros

Some amazing talent in the teams, the kind of people who could turn their hand to anything. A really friendly HR team. Nice, caring, approachable.

Cons

So desperate to try and be edgy and cool that they don't know how to make an actual game that's fun any more. The places reeks of needing someone to validate them as the creative darlings they think they are in a frankly pathetic way. There is no vision or plan for the future. It's just a stumble from one leadership created disaster to another with the teams feeling exhausted from all the direction changes. The compromises made on a daily basis to get anything done were insane with more time spent managing upwards than doing your jobs. Pettiness and small mindedness existed in the top level. Small and cruel barbed comments, slights, little digs that just eat away at morale.

Pros

The people are the best I have ever worked with, and care a lot about the game we're making. I have a lot of flexibility with working remotely, great work-life balance, and appreciate the trust given by production and management. There have been a few changes over the last few years but it feels like we are in the best place we've ever been in.

Cons

The games industry as a whole right now is not in a great place however leadership has kept us in the loop with how we are doing which gives me confidence.
