Pros

- They do give chances to folks without a background in what they seek. - Somewhat flexible in terms of autonomy. - Work life balance is excellent.

Cons

- They have tried for decades a this point to produce a good game. Unsuccessful at best. - Leadership does not care about employees. Little transparency, heavy handed, top down. Not really thinking about the user. - No career development, let alone progression. - The office is sub-par, especially considering other tech companies. - Comp is pretty bad.

Pros

they looks for smart people. interviews can be tough, but it's a fun place to work and they respect what you do. They do give young people opportunities to succeed as well and take on their own projects.

Cons

take it or leave it, it is a games company. everybody loves games. sometime though it's like whoa, you know the details of Mario Kart way beyond what a normal human should know.
