Pros

Profit growth is exponential. Typical game culture. No real crunching although sometimes overtime is required and working weekends depending on job role.

Cons

Getting really big. It is really easy to get stuck in a department or field and not be able to get out.

Pros

Passionate co-workers who are all hyper talented, amazing fringe benefits, work/life balance, dedicated managers to help you with your career, and passionate players to serve.

Cons

Egos are rewarded you have to be really good at self promotion, the company is so big that you can feel lost if you don't invest in networking often, layoffs happen at Riot now
