Pros

Free lunch and snack bar Guaranteed end of year bonus No crunch since it's solely a Games as a service studio

Cons

HR won't handle issues properly, will promise to solve problem but will mostly do nothing about it. Uppermanagement is non existant and would rather keep staff under the radar about earnings. No clear roadmap of development to unify studio goals across departments, most things are found out during announcements to the public rather than internally. Game engine is horribly outdated. Similarly any senior staff experience is out of touch especially compared to the rest of the industry. Office culture is very much like high school cliques with a ton of unnecessary gossip.

Pros

* They never overwork you (if you work 10 extra hours this week, work 10 less next week) * First company I've worked for where I feel like the Company cares about me too, not just my coworkers. * Their way of making a game is very customer-centric, in a way that I love.

Cons

Honestly? None. I have no issues with my job.
