Pros
ATVI is an awesome place to work. With the casual atmosphere (jeans!), fun events, and other random perks like summer popsicles and therapy dogs, it's a blast. I will say though, that without these things, ATVI would still be great because of the people. My colleagues are my favorite part of the day, and even when work gets rough (as it does, often), they keep me in high spirits. The knowledge and experience I've gained over my years here is incomparable to anywhere else I have worked. Learning from the best truly makes me proud to say I'm an employee at Activision Blizzard. There is a lot of room for growth, and Activision Blizzard has been building up support for workers and their business steadily. A lot has changed since I first started.
Cons
Management has good intentions, but that's not always communicated to the masses. More transparency, more discussions with ELT, and better messaged overall vision and strategy would let employees feel less like a cog in the wheel and more like they're a part of something larger.
