Pros

Good compensation and benefits, including free food Far reach - your relatives, friends, and wife's friends probably play their games

Cons

They talk the talk but don't walk the walk - for example, "Be your own CEO" is a core value but they micromanage employees Experience and knowledge of experienced employees frequently ignored - long hours by junior employees more valued than working smarter The studios are second class citizens - if you aren't at the main office in SF your options are limited and you are much more expendable Often mislead by management - optimism and a positive plan one day, then completely changed the next to something negative

Pros

Great culture, supportive team environment, acceptable salary

Cons

VIP Account Management is meant to be an entry-level position (which does pay well), but can get very mundane and role tasks are repetitive; no major variety, or additional responsibilities
