Pros

- Lots of space for progression - Really cool technology to work on - Truly brilliant people - Best health insurance cover in the business - Action time where you get to work on your pet projects - Really trying to be inclusive despite one sided game portfolio

Cons

- Everything is about AI now - Ethics (around AI and DEI) are now secondary priorities after buyout news - CEO treated like a celebrity, worried more about what his next pair of nike shoes is going to be than how his decisions effect the average employee. Boasting about installing a half pipe for his son in their yard while giving news of the company having to now pay 4 bil in interest per year. - Very USA and money centric. Everything is about the bottom line and finding new ways to push microtransactions. Greed is celebrated. - Taking advantage of market instability to push through more and more policies which take away benefits from employes (rto, restructurings, soft layoffs, constant instability) - RTO very negatively effecting global workforce - Restructuring guarantee you won't be able to trust or build long term relationships with your co-workers because they'll be in a different department next year.

Pros

A lot of good and smart people that are able to create good work together.

Cons

Restructuring every year, nepotism, no clear path for career progression at all, senior leadership isn’t communicating clearly, acquisition communication has been non-existent, layoffs are a constant factor and fear, unclear why some people get promoted and many high performers do not
