Pros

Great work life balance, amazing colleagues, fantastic benefits and conditions. The people are what make Wargaming great. The European team is welcoming to work with no matter your role or your location.

Cons

The leadership in the Asia-Pacific region completely changed the entire culture and hierachy in a negative way. Backstabbing and flattery, being a "yes man" is the only way to climb the corporate hierachy. No one dares to disagree anymore, and all community engagement and moderation tools have been shut down. The leadership has double standards for their employees, demanding they be proactive, ready, engaged and respectful while never returning it. Employees who have been in the company for a decade are ignored in favour of the new leadership's direction, and all who don't fit with this militant approach are fired or leave voluntarily. This is only a recent change, going back even 6 months and no one would have a bad word to say about the company, but now it's a sinking ship.

Pros

perfectly work life balance, Colleagues are extremely friendly, and everyone's abilities are outstanding.

Cons

The top executive in the Asia region implements an almost militaristic management approach and strictly enforces a hierarchical communication structure. This has led to a situation where if your immediate supervisor is both incompetent and devious, all voices are unable to reach the highest levels. The top executive manages the company in an almost authoritarian manner, treating everyone as if they were children, even though all employees are professionals with years of work experience and are over 30 years old. I believe that the top executive in the Asia region is competent, but his complete lack of empathy and their judgmental perspective are concerning. After taking on the role of leading another team, it has become an endless disaster. Lastly, to climb the corporate ladder in this company(i mean in Apac office only), you don't necessarily need to have skills; you just need to be good at flattery and know how to act in front of the higher-ups, backstabbing your subordinates is enough; as this has already been proven in the company through real-life situations.

Pros

Fun games, friendly working environment.

Cons

HQs are in Belarus and Cyprus. It's hard for teams in the US to be proactive because they are given very little autonomy and information. Some people are cut-throat in their career goals and don't try to nurture new leaders because they're worried about competition.
