Pros

- Never been happier to go to 'work' couldn't call it that really. The people are so lovely and supportive, I would be remiss if I didn't sing their praises. - The relaxed work culture & tight knit gaming community in the office is the stuff of dreams. - If you have the tenacity & the right attitude, this is a company that will reward you (financially & fulfillment wise) - There's room for advancement (if you choose) not just in your career path, but if you have an idea worth pursuing and show passion Curse will provide resources.

Cons

- Industry moves quickly. The most valuable asset in the company may turn out to be a liability 2 years later. Hard to set a firm course, at time. - New directions means new blood, outside talent may have existing employees looking to grow, overlooked. Can be frustrating when you want to build a long term career.

Pros

I've really enjoyed my experience working for Curse. Many of Curse's employees relocate from across the country to come be a part of this team (including myself), and since day one everyone has done a great job making sure I feel welcome and included. It is inspiring to come to work every day with such passionate people- everyone here believes that Curse's web properties and products truly help gamers better enjoy their gaming experience, and that belief is what motivates everyone to work hard and contribute to the community they love on a daily basis. Curse values its employees and offers an excellent benefit package (way better than my last employer)- to start, I pay nothing out of pocket for my medical, dental, and vision insurance. Curse also contributes up to 5% to your 401K, which can add up fast. The catered lunches, stocked kitchen, monthly gym reimbursement, and annual gaming expense reimbursement aren't bad either. I also get to take more PTO here than I ever have before- Curse gives you 20 PTO days in your first year. All of this really makes me feel very well taken care of by Curse. Last, the company is growing like crazy right now. Since Curse prefers to promote from within rather than hire management into the company, it's definitely an awesome time to join the team (more leadership/management/senior level roles should open up to keep up with the growth).

Cons

It's hard for me to come up with any cons to working for Curse. The only thing I can say is the org. structure is pretty flat right now, but I assume that's going to change soon with all of the growth this year and next.
