      Pros

      Can be a great place to work. Working for a large company has many benefits in terms of pooled resources and investments in technologies.

      Cons

      Wow micromanagement galore. Too much management. Lured to EA to work on small project. Fantastic team, then with success came "improvements" I.e. Almost 1 to 1 producers/managers to developers. Truly bizarre. Soon there will be more managers then people doing the work. Lack of respect for people doing the work.

      Fast paced startup mindset in an established corporate ladder

      Cons

      Privatization might cause headcount reduction, change the tempo and culture in the organization. 🤞

      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
