Pros

Salary, work from home benefits, office/internet/gym stipend. Employees are amazing here (besides leadership). People are willing to work with each other and collaborate to make great projects. They are open to feedback and thinking about things in new ways. The employees are trying to create an amazing work culture, which is difficult from a fully-remote company.

Cons

Leadership is absolute rubbish. Atmosphere and culture are big lies. Leadership does not care about the individual employee and they make some of the most unorganized decisions ever. I get that this is a startup but I've never seen worse leadership before in my career. This company is detrimentally unorganized, leadership does not track projects properly. In addition to poor organization leadership just doesn't know how to run a company or ask for information from their employees. Their directions are unclear and they feel as if you don't like them if you keep asking them questions to clarify their requests. Leadership does not live up to their own Fortis values. They do not provide ANY transparency in their decisions, they do not feel as if they need to. They just assign you the work and are not open for any differing ideals. There are many times in which I feel shunned for having a different opinion, and I often do not feel heard of appreciated. Your work is extremely undervalued here. Leadership will ask for documentation and information but will never read what you send them, then a week later they will ask you for the same information that is in the document you sent them last week... If you expect to be valued at a company, go elsewhere.

Pros

I could not ask for a better team to work with. We are very well aligned on goals and strategies across the entire company. Those goals push us to define strategies that make every person here feel part of the process to bring games to market. We are encouraged here to voice our opinions at every level and have our say. I wouldn't want to work anywhere else right now.

Cons

There are times when I get lost in corporate paperwork and tracking. This can be discouraging at times. I try to carve out time in my day to process the paperwork, ensuring it gets done without too much injury.
