Some internal challenges, but overall good experience.

Pros

Enthusiastic team atmosphere where the featured product is games. There are Razor scooters to use in the office for getting quickly from one office to the next.

Cons

Constantly changing priorities; the management shows pretty significant favoritism towards those considered part of the "inner sanctum" - the rest of the employees are treated differently. After 10 years, still have not figured out how to add more vacation time for people that have been at the company longer than a couple of years, nor do they have any sort of standard bonus system.
