GIANTS Software Reviews

I currently work as a Lead Vehicle Artist at GIANTS Software in Brno. After reading some of the negative reviews here, I felt it was only fair to share my own experience. I have been working in the game industry for more than twenty years. Before joining a game studio, I worked as a web designer, DTP artist, and contractor creating architectural visualizations, buildings, and vehicle assets for the games industry. Throughout my career, I have worked for ten different game studios and employers, including studios developing successful AAA titles. Because of that, I believe I have a solid basis for comparing different company cultures, production pipelines, and management styles. Every studio I worked at had something unique to offer, and I genuinely enjoyed my time in each of them. I always looked forward to joining new projects, meeting talented people, learning from experienced colleagues, and seeing another game shipped with my name in the credits. Early in my career, every shipped title felt like another milestone I was proud to add to my portfolio. Whenever I felt I had reached a point where I was no longer growing professionally, I looked for new challenges. Before joining GIANTS Software, the longest I had ever stayed with a single company was four years. At the time, I honestly believed that experience would be difficult to surpass. Today, I'm approaching my seventh year at GIANTS Software, and I think that says more than any rating I could give. One of the things I appreciate most is that we are constantly improving our production pipeline. We regularly refine our tools and workflows, and employees are encouraged to contribute ideas and drive improvements. I particularly enjoy being able to take an active role in those changes. If you are proactive, motivated, and willing to take responsibility, your ideas are genuinely listened to. The company also invests in creating a positive working environment. Our Brno office is modern, located in the city centre on the fourteenth floor, with excellent accessibility and a fantastic view. Beyond the workspace itself, employees have access to an on-site gym, a table tennis room, table football, and a dedicated chill-out area. These facilities encourage people to take short breaks, stay active, and socialize throughout the day. Every new employee is welcomed with a welcome dinner, which helps people build personal connections from day one. We also have company-wide summer retreats where colleagues from all offices can meet in person. These events make a real difference. It's much easier to collaborate with someone when you've had the chance to get to know them outside of emails and online meetings. The compensation package is also competitive. In addition to regular salary, the company provides Christmas bonuses and performance bonuses linked to the commercial success of our games. This year I also had the opportunity to spend more time with our CEO. I came away with a very positive impression. I found him approachable, thoughtful, and genuinely interested in both the company and its employees. Meeting the person leading the company gave me even more confidence in its future. No company is perfect, and everyone's experience will naturally be different. I'm simply sharing mine. After more than twenty years in the industry and experience across many studios, I can honestly say that GIANTS Software has been one of the most rewarding places I've worked. It continues to challenge me, gives me opportunities to grow, and has kept me motivated year after year. That is probably the strongest recommendation I can give.
