Blizzard Entertainment interview questions

Recruiter email, filled out interest form / experience, follow up with recruiter, submitted to the Hiring Manager, meeting with hiring manager who was super cool and was just engaging about my experience / what im looking for in my next role. Transferred to the team's recruiter, hacker rank that was 5 times better than any other company's hackerrank I did (actually relevant questions and coding style for the specific role), followed by 3 interviews with the team, stakeholders, and producers. All in all great experience , lots of waiting but completely normal for a game/corporate company. Patience paid off, and so did preparing and doing due diligence to see what interesting things I can talk about/ ask about while also seeing if it would be a good fit for me.

I was a referred to the team via a former employee. After getting through the screener, I met with the Teams. What I found during y interview rounds came at a huge surprise. Morale is low and everyone is now burnered with low staff numbers and a revenue driven goals sets. Compounded by, UX infrastructure to get the work done is minimal. Culturally, Design is not valued from the executives, it seems to be shoved into a corner, called upon as needed to execute solutions. Although there are many great things about Blizzard, If the c-suite doesn't get things straighten out, Blizzard will quickly lose its place at the forefront of the gaming industry.
