Pros

The pay was good. Nice benefits. You will be working with one of the more popular games engines.

Cons

We were promised no layoffs would be necessary, then they went with the layoffs. You can't work on personal projects or do anything without prior approval from the company, even if it's not related to your work. They mostly ignore their European offices.

Pros

- Benefits such as competitive pay (for the games industry), daily catered lunches, great insurance, unlimited PTO (for US employees), and quarterly bonuses - A general drive to want to create the best and most innovative tools possible - Smart acquisitions for long term success - Still a private company lead by longtime industry veterans

Cons

- Growing pains, since I've been here the company has grown to almost 8 times the number - Big plans for the future, coupled with uncertainty of success leads to a lot of pressure felt company-wide - Often delivering developer tools as a service to be updated over time rather than when they are finished and polished - Fast paced environment with very little structure for the size, often feels like multiple little teams operate independently from each other
