Pros

Incredible company and culture. Experience varies on which department you work in.

Cons

Politics is still a problem, old boys run certain departments. QA is a garbage fire.

Pros

Fantastic job for those just getting started in the workplace. GREAT medical benefits, bonuses, and perks. Incredibly fun environment where performance is constantly recognized and awarded for. Excellent new hire and continuing training. Core values are actually carried through the workday. They're not just lip service!

Cons

Work environment HIGHLY depends on which managers you're working with. Not much control over what shift you'll be assigned to in frequent shift bids. If you're a woman, expect to work a little harder to have your voice heard. At the end of the day, customer service is a call center. It's not intended to sustain someone as a lifelong career unless you hit management or transition into another department. Not much work-life balance for parents - unexpected absences or school calls count as an attendance hit, no employee benefits to help with childcare expenses.

Fun place to work

Pros

Very friendly place to work, can easily strike up a conversation with anyone due many people having similar interests. People are also very passionate about their work in general.

Cons

The pay is lower than similar positions in the industry even though management denies it. Management make it sound like they are paying you more than they really are by adding benefits like "free" games/battle.net balance to fluff up your total compensation. I'd rather have cold hard cash thanks.
