Pros

Good base compensation and opportunity to work with very some awesome studios.

Cons

My experience at FRVR has been deeply disheartening. The lack of career progression opportunities, combined with ineffective leadership, has resulted in immense frustration. It feels like 90% of the time, the work we put in goes unnoticed or unused, leaving us questioning the purpose of our efforts.However, the most dismaying aspect of my time at FRVR has been the toxic and harmful behavior exhibited by the founder. Unfortunately, it is not an isolated incident; nearly every colleague has had a truly negative experience with this individual. Their detrimental influence casts a shadow over the entire company, hindering morale and stifling growth.Regrettably, the HR department at FRVR fails to fulfill its purpose effectively. Rather than being a support system for employees, they seem solely focused on hiring, with no regard for addressing concerns or providing a platform for employees to be heard. Shockingly, they engage in unprofessional behaviour, trash-talking individuals within the company and sharing sensitive information—a breach of trust that undermines the integrity of the organisation. Furthermore, the company has undergone two rounds of layoffs within a year, leaving little confidence in its stability and future. The chance of further layoffs seems too real, adding an additional layer of uncertainty and anxiety.If you prioritise career growth and a healthy work environment, proceed with caution when considering FRVR. The lack of opportunities for advancement, toxic leadership, unreliable HR practices, and the recurring layoffs make it a challenging place to thrive professionally.

Pros

The people I got to work with were some of the best I ever meet at a company, Above average salary Possibility to work full remote form anywhere

Cons

FRVR seems to have one business practice and that is throw sh*t at the wall and see what sticks, But not a lot of that actually stuck, instead of looking for a clear path and going on that and structure it in a way that makes sense. Because of that every 5-6 months there's a purge that affects great people and last time I survived the purge, this time after shuffling teams mine was taken out of commission after a month or two cause we weren't needed anymore,
