      Pros

      Great facility with a lot of perks like the gym, the resource library and activity groups. Opportunity to work for one of the oldest and biggest developers/ publishers. Exposure to the biggest titles in the gaming industry. Work on projects sold internationally for a company that is international. Great experience opportunities. Work with some of the best in the industry. Fantastic benefits.

      Cons

      Individuals can get lost in the machinery of the company. Sometimes the "Process" out ways individual creativity. Some people may feel it is to big for them. Very competitive.

      Cons

      Compensation lower in comparison to other bay area companies (at least in the customer service department), Politics are sometimes involved when positions are chosen, it is a large corporation so it can be easy to get lost, sometimes changes in policy take longer to make because it is such a large company

      Steer clear of EA, despite the numerous company benefits.

      Pros

      You get EA Game Credits on a yearly basis, which is pretty rocking, and after you spend your credits you can buy games that EA produces at a discounted rate. In addition, they have Beer Friday, which is "Bring your own Beer, just don't leave work drunk." The perks are nice, and I like the SCUM Methodology they used to conduct daily meetings. It really held everyone in check when it came to getting your projects completed on time.

      Cons

      Well, I found working for Electronic Arts to be very political. If you rubbed the wrong way with someone, you basically would eat lunch alone, and not be invited out with everyone else to get a soda downstairs or something of the sorts. I found the memos received from upper management were not very detailed, so we were kind of in the dark about things. In addition, the way our director handled people was very passive. He would never come out and say something to your face, but he would let other people do his dirty work for him. Kind of sucked.
