Pros

People were friendly and fun to work with. Was treated well and valued by the company over all. Good pay overall as Senior -> Principal engineer role over time.

Cons

Weekly release feature cadence grinds could get pretty monotonous. Engineering work often degraded into repeated Actionscript3 and JSON for feature creation on web based games. Most engineers wanted newer challenges to tackle (understandably). Other peoples dogs barking and peeing under my desk repeatedly during work hours. (No I didn't have a dog.)

Pros

You get to work on games, which is cool. The pay is decent and the people can be really fun. the building is nice and new, and it does not feel crowded.

Cons

The open door to dogs makes the place smell like a kennel. The overtime can get really bad, and overall burn out is common.
