Working At the Z.

Pros

Zynga's pay is very competitive. Their facility is also great, with a big building, full kitchen, and parking (for a monthly fee). The perks are awesome. Great food served daily, prepared fresh. Sometimes they send you to Hawaii if your team does really well. Luxury Suite at AT&T Park. Great people at the IC level to work with. They're good at hiring team-level people.

Cons

Unfortunately, once you get up to the executive level things fall apart. The Corporate Leadership team seems constantly lost, often changing the "company vision", like drunk swerving on the road they just don't seem to know which direction to go in. Morale is consistently low because of that. They also have trouble getting games out the door. Everything is driven by PM's, so creatives usually get back seated.

Pros

Zynga had a great general working culture, lots of fun, good comp, various silos worked well together before the FB to Mobile market implosion.

Cons

Engineering teams pushed too hard eventually lead to timelines for everything breaking. Senior management was a nightmare. Long term planning didn't exist.
