Pros

Treat employees well. There are good perks and a genuine joy around what we create as a company. Good transparency.

Cons

Compensation and career opportunities aren't that great. Recent layoff situations seemed to be avoidable and could have been handled better.

Pros

Some great teams with great people. If you like the games, then it would be more fun for you. Passionate coworkers.

Cons

Leadership (Games leadership and CLevel) is drifting more apart from their players and workers. All floated by because they had great product. Terrible managers.

Pros

Compensation and work perks The actual product (the games) are great and I feel proud to be working for the company that makes League of Legends.

Cons

Crazy-making levels of bureaucracy, even in roles where you're not impacting anything player-facing. You can't do or try anything without leadership buy-in, no matter what discipline. If you and leadership are sympatico, great! If not, good luck. You need to either be a tech genius, have god-tier charisma, or have no mind of your own (or pretend that you don't) to do well here. From another review here: "A job where you’re never at peace not because you’re challenging yourself, but because the higher ups are forever trying to out-do each other" ^^^ This! A million times, this!
