Awesome workplace that cares for employees - QA Lead/Senior QA Analyst Compulsion Games Employee Review

- An incredibly rare people centric, empathetic, progress place - People are treated with respect, dignity and appreciation - Deeply passionate about the craft and artistry - Fantastic creative and wildly talented teams - A truly compassionate CEO who cares for his people

I find the following incredibly hard to write due to my affection for the people & place but - Leadership that means well but does not comprehend the impact and ramifications of their actions - Lack of focus, discipline, processes, and clear direction - Appalling prioritisation and communication (in the sense of a lack off) from some of the most central leadership - At times distrusting, and insular: a hierarchy/clique of trust that causes outsiders to feel even more alienated, unheard or seen - particularly as a significant number of the studio are friends + former colleagues from other Montreal studios, causing unconscious bias or favouritism - Continually allows things & people to fail/fall apart/crumble instead of stepping in with respectful yet affirmative action - resulting in lost time& work, but more importantly careers being harmed or ended, and peoples lives being thrown into complete disarray - Personal relationships are prioritised over, and impact other/less favoured people's work
