Pros

Team was great and people genuinely care about the projects they are working on. Super passionate.

Cons

Leadership doesn’t care about anyone. Said there wouldn’t be layoffs and the month after Microsoft took over, laid off 2500 people and they just keep happening

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.
