Pros

Good benefits, nice team, passionate people, flexible schedule and unlimited PTO

Cons

Of the 8+ hires in the past year, all have been let go in addition to more longer term serving staff. The high turnover in the team is quite disruptive considering the size. Not a lot of the team have been around for more than 2-3 years. While there is unlimited PTO, there often isn't the ability to utilise it as there is no one to cover your work so rarely are staff taking consecutive days rather than long weekends. There can be a lot of overtime required without full accrual of days in lieu, you might get 1/3 of the time back if you can even manage to get the day off! There's a lot of talk about changes, policy and improving ways of working with little to no implementation. A lot of the issues discussed would be expected in a young <5 year company and not of this tenure (12 year+). The shifting to quick financial wins rather than longterm investment adds extra stress to the team, things naturally crash and there is a lot of pointing fingers and quick to avoid ownership

Pros

Battlefy is a fantastic company that provides a dynamic environment for hardworking employees to grow both personally and professionally. The team is small, yet diverse in both culture and life experience, and has provided me with an immense amount of opportunities for growth within my position, as well as the chance to branch out and explore my next place in the industry. We're also given flexible hours, a fantastic vacation policy, the ability to work remotely, and many perks that come from collaborating with other huge names in Esports.

Cons

I personally haven't experienced many cons while working here, but if you're not interested in Esports, you may consider looking elsewhere.
