Pros

There are some decent people, and its exciting to work with them on new titles.

Cons

This company sadly gives the impression of being a front, or a shell for senior management's “C-Suite’ wannabe lifestyle. The people in charge play business, they don't actually know how or seem to want to learn how to run a business. The worst thing is that good and talented people who think they are living their dream of working in Video Games are actually being horribly treated. Good pay and the promise of stock options when starting cover initial concerns of a non existing leadership plan. The management that does attempt to move projects forward plead (or warn) that to succeed you must “wear a lot of hats”. This is quickly turned to a criticism if you don’t over work yourself and take on projects that aren’t actually a part of your job description. I cannot stress this enough, you will be ostracized for pointing our issues or concerns. The company uses predatory practices to lengthen probations so that they can terminate you when it is most appropriate for them. This company talks good game, it has good pedigree, and its creative team want to make good games, but the reality is this company couldnt hit water if it fell out of a boat.
