      Pros

      Free breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, coffee bar, gym, shuttle. Frequent happy hours and off-site team events. Dynamic and intelligent engineering staff. Salary competitive.

      Cons

      Awkward location. Expensive parking. Continuing inability to innovate, find fun, delivery quality, retain players. High turnover. Low morale. Brutal, unashamed and divisive politics, "strategic alliances," and empire building creates dysfunctional teams. Many leaders with no experience in games or entertainment making creative decisions. Product management organization dominated by fear, out of date approach and tools, consultants, cult-like dependence on power point presentations, chronic analysis-paralysis. Languid and clubby ex-EA management. Many, many boys and girls promoted way over their heads and abilities. CEO constantly randomizing and micromanaging teams until they can't function. Still just an analytics company masking as a game company.
