      Successful games publisher at the sacrifice of human capital and fun

      Pros

      Profitable and successful console games publisher, which means it offers more stability than most. Good opportunities for career progression if you work in studios or at HQ. Process driven on the business side, and creative driven on the studio side. Fair to good compensation packages, depending on line manager. Lots of smart people work here.

      Cons

      Overly lean organizational structure results in over-worked employees at every level, but particularly in the middle. Work-life balance is non-existent (60-70 hour work week and interruption on holidays is the norm). American-centric approach to market engagement. Corporate culture is stiff and impersonal at the best of times, and openly hostile at the worst of times. Everyone feels constantly at risk of being fired. Heavily ego-driven executives in certain key functions result in operational and commercial dysfunction. Rewards firefighters, which rewards arsonists. HR processes like reviews, talent planning, etc. can feel empty and pointless, and little is done to police managers who don't take them seriously. Finance process is onerous and impedes correct behaviour in certain territories.
