Pros
Your experience at EA completely depends on the team you are working for. Game teams have tight deadlines and they may push you sometimes. Also, some game teams are more democratized than others in terms of allowing you to try new things. For instance, PvZ team is very flexible while FIFA is not. The overall culture in EA is better than other tech companies mainly because half of EA employees are artists and not engineers! They get excited with colors rather than numbers!
Cons
-The benefits and salaries are mediocre comparing to other giants. -It is not easy to switch teams/roles in EA -People get promoted by talking a lot (politics)! rather than achieving something
