Pros

- Nice and relaxed working environment - Good open and honest lines of communication between staff and management - Flexi Time and monthly staff lunch outings - Service days - Lovely brand new modern office and centrally located in the city centre - Friendly staff and everyone seems to get along well with each other - Health Care - I have worked with a few of the average to poor healthcare plans that some companies give their employees (and to be honest they arent worth the paper they are written on) but this plan has to be the best plan out there on the market by far covering health and dental

Cons

- Employee Benefits; they arent what the used to be after the crash but post-recession they have brought back some of the old benefits and have big plans on bringing in some new ones :) - Salaries could be better but again this is something that is the norm in most companies post-recession but at least they do have proper annual performance review structures in place so you can get your annual salary increase if you earnt it)!

Pros

I joined the new office in El Segundo, CA which is considered a separate branch from the Dublin and the now-defunct Los Angeles office. - Great co-workers - Given a lot of autonomy on tasks - Startup culture (can be a con for some people) - Best health benefits I've ever had - Casual dress-code

Cons

- It is a mobile gaming company, knowledge about mobile gaming is essential. - Fixed working schedule - Can be long hours depending on position - Sometimes have to wear many hats (can be a pro for some people)

Pros

The big projects that they were able to obtain 5 years ago

Cons

complete and utter incompetence at the managerial level. Decisions made without data. No interest in expanding the abilities of the company or themselves. Many times inept management leads to overwhelming crunch work for the entire company. Inability to communicate has led to wasteful decisions as well as the closure of their US subsidiary due to inability to work with the US staff there. This inability to communicate as well as manage has also led to the loss of a high profile AAA project. Not enough support or proper perspective in regards to what are essential projects to the company. Bleeding qualified and formerly motivated employees left and right. Not destined to remain in business or independent.
