Pros

DICE is a studio full with people who are incredibly passionate about making the best games and in the best ways. Innovation and creativity is always encouraged and welcome, and the ceiling is very high for people to take on additional responsibilities and grow in their careers. DICE and EA value and take care of their employees, and you never feel like just a cog in a machine. The best place I've ever worked at.

Cons

Since we always strive to improve, we often make changes to ways of working before the previous changes have properly settled. We often "throw out the baby with the bathwater" so to speak and don't let the dust settle before making more changes.

Pros

No crunch! Some of the best work/life balance in the industry. Their goal is to be efficient with their time. Good pay/benefits - this is a given, it's EA... Nice location near the Marina but the rent is very high if you plan to live close to work.

Cons

Multiple failed projects. The studio has not been successful at anything other than supporting other studios. (DICE Sweden) There is a clique here that consists of people who have been here since before the studio took the "DICE" name... They are friendly to your face but ultimately only look out for each other and will turn on you if they feel threatened in any way. Unfortunately management allows this as they are part of it. Slow career advancement partially because of the issue above. Also they will tell you that you're getting a promotion for years before actually going through with it. Few transferrable skills as an artist - you are either strictly working with Frostbite or 3D art (mostly photogrammetry) and they don't really like it if you try to do both. So good luck going somewhere else only knowing how to do one of those things. Leadership is not great at decision making or being accountable.
