On the rise - Math Developer Rocket Gaming Systems Employee Review

The executive team is constantly striving to improve Rocket Gaming Systems. They are a very hard working team and are supportive of the employees. This is a family oriented business. Even though we all work hard to accomplish our goals, the executive team stresses the importance of family and well-being.

There are times when we work long hours, but we are usually rewarded. Other than that working with Rocket is very satisfying.

Studio folks work well together. Excellent sales and support crew keep the company afloat.

The vast majority of mid- and upper-level management are incompetent and unqualified - with a few notable exceptions. Exceptionally poor technical environment ("platform" software), making development cumbersome, problematic, and time-consuming. Buggy, no documentation, hit-or-miss support. Titles take 2-3 times longer than they should. Worst API I've ever seen. Constant pressure for (unpaid) overtime. Constantly changing, conflicting, and overlapping methodologies and processes. Project management by crises - no forethought, planning, or support. Outdated product hardware and design; little likelihood for improvement. Almost no opportunity for career growth or development. Constant turnover - more than 50% higher than industry average. Company is financially unstable. *** Rocket could be a case study for everything to do wrong with a company ***
