Fun office, bad management - Anonymous employee IGN Entertainment Employee Review

Pros

IGN hires great people and is a fun environment. Having them on your resume opens a lot of doors as seen by the places former employees end up.

Cons

Poor management and a huge lack of support to those at the bottom of the totem pole leading to rapid turnover. Lost many potential senior employees due to laughable offers, hoping their name alone will compensate for it. It works for most entry level employees though.

Pros

- Great content team - Name recognition grants access opportunities - A handful of supportive veterans who can still get things done

Cons

- New VP is behind the times and a bully to any staff that rank below him, especially women. - Management's first instinct to cut costs is always lay-offs, while investing in projects and acquisitions that only further strain workload - It's always "do more with less," not "what changes would actually allow more productivity?" - Morale is so low many long term staff openly talk about job hunting and two key people have left since new VP's appointment (and are yet to be replaced) - No clear plan for dealing with falling traffic or issues faced due to AI - Technical innovation focused anywhere but editorial
