      Pros

      - Independent studio model allows development studios to manage themselves and maintain their own branding and company culture. - Lots of free games from the Activision/Blizzard back catalog. - Not as evil as people make them out to be.

      Cons

      - Terrible pay rises. Before our studio was acquired, pay rises were excellent. As soon as Activision bought the studio pay rises dropped dramatically. - Studio closures are very common. - Publisher is very good at exploiting existing IP but terrible at developing new IP. - Creatively uninspiring projects.

      Pros

      Passionate coworkers, great for building your portfolio, a lot of fun events at Blizzard HQ.

      Cons

      Layoffs every six months or so. Everybody is always waiting for the ball to drop. I’ve seen people get let go right after being hired, and others get let go after decades.
