Pros

I've worked at Ubisoft Toronto for four years and it's an excellent studio with a strong vision for the games it wants to create. It's also a fantastic culture and the team embraces diversity and actually encourages it. I highly recommend this studio to any game development professionals looking for a place to be creative while working on great game brands.

Cons

With the continued growth at the studio, culture could suffer if it's not cared for. More vacation would also be a nice addition for employees - currently at three weeks.

Pros

Fun, exciting work environment (Ubisoft Montreal), contributing to some of the world's best-selling video games. Interact with members of all different teams within a given production, so you learn a bit about all different aspects of game development. Work with translations in up to 20+ languages per project (really fun for language nerds). The localization team is friendly and close-knit.

Cons

Deadline pressure can be very intense right before a game ships-- expect very busy days and significant amounts of overtime for one or two periods a year of 2-3 weeks or more. It's worse for localization because we always had to wait for all the other teams to make their last-minute changes and then handle the translations at the last _second_. A number of female colleagues have told me that there can be noticeable sexism within Ubisoft as a whole (about 17% women employees), although I don't think it is a problem within the localization department (when I was there it was led by women and composed of almost 50% women). As I understand it, the problem is more with certain managers etc. Worth looking into this further if you want to work at Ubisoft (or in video games in general).
