Pros

Gas Powered Games existed for 15 years before Wargaming purchased the studio & turned it into Wargaming Seattle in June 2013. Same office, many of the same staff, and Chris Taylor at the helm. Wargaming.net is wonderful, supportive, and we're currently working on an amazing project. Passionate & talented developers, great benefits, free bus, 401K w/ matching.

Cons

Wargaming Seattle is in some ways starting over as far as local branding, as not everyone associates us with Gas Powered Games.

Pros

Up and coming MMOs, truely great and unique product offerings

Cons

Management in the Emeryville office is not qualified, and hired based on nepotism. The GM and HR/Accounting/Office manager have been friends since high school, however the HR/Accounting/Office manager was hired despite having no HR experience, not gaming or finance experience (though it is my understanding that the HR and Accounting responsibilities have since been transferred). The GM and Program Manager have been friends for 5+ years, and the Program Manager and Marketing Director have been friends for nearly 10 years, and the Marketing Director was hired because of these relationships despite having no gaming experience. This creates a comfortable environment for senior management, however there is no confidentiality amongst senior management, which is very difficult for employees and sometimes breaches of confidence happen because of these friendships.

Pros

There are many competent people in the company and executive leadership doesn't seem to shy away from the big problems. There is an open atmosphere where 'sacred cows' can be challenged. Plenty of work to do and a great opportunity to get with a fast-paced growing company.

Cons

Communication issues between the different offices; but this isn't anything that similar sized companies spread out over various countries doesn't face.
