      Pros

      used to be a great place to work with lots of added benefits. these days employees don't get bonuses, christmas parties or offsites like we used to

      Cons

      lack of appreciation for employees "be glad you have a job" atmosphere increased workload due to massive rounds of layoffs

      Major dissatisfaction

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Perks: food, gym, shuttle, salary, stock options.

      Cons

      People are out for themselves and will step on your back and even lie in order to advance. They are still learning how to develop games and the talent pool reflects that. Major title inflation, particularly at the studio and team leads level. Clique-ish in the extreme, particularly between management and individual contributors. Constant shifting of teams and priorities. Creativity takes a major back seat, despite recent efforts. Content is not innovative and is reskinned over and over. It's as if a bunch of recent ivy league grads jumped on an emerging market, succeeded, hired their friends and are now trying to dictate how to make sophisticated, AAA video games. They don't play games, they don't review games. All the perks in the world do not make up for these major shortcomings.
