Pros

Fun game to play and an amazing workplace to creatively immerse oneself into a fictional world. Amazing art and talent to collaborate with. Health benefits are great and very talented teammates to work with (those who stay). Cool studio facility and supportive HR and studio management.

Cons

Complete mismanagement and micromanagement of projects which leads to incredibly high staff turnover. CEO micromanages every aspect to the projects so decisions can't (or won't) be made by anyone other than him - even minor gameplay or development decisions. Complete lack of department budgets, timelines or accountability. Poor communication and silo'd teams working on game features that should be connected. Lack of centralized production knowledge and course setting. Most (if not all) of the execs have never held their positions before in a large scale company setting.
