Pros
-Takes the ongoing pandemic Very seriously, all departments except IT switched fully to remote work at the start of the pandemic and have remained remote in the 2.5 years since (with the option to come into the office if you'd like). -Until recently employment has been very stable with yearly pay increases and bonuses. This is especially rare in the game dev industry. -Respects Quality Assurance by paying them fairly and not using contract workers. I've been at another developer that clearly thought very little of the QA department and either used primarily contract workers that they would then fire at the end of the project or unfairly paid QA low wages compared to other departments. This is not so here. -There is little to no overtime or crunch, another rarity in the industry.
Cons
-Recently let go of a lot of integral senior staff in an attempt to save money. This has created a very unstable and uncertain working environment as less experienced employees scramble to make up for the years of experience and leadership lost. -New company leadership seems less invested in making a good game that players enjoy. -Some isolated(?) examples of women in lead positions with 10+ years of experience being paid less than their male coworkers in lower positions with fewer years experience.
