Pros

Very warm peer environment with lots of talented, kind coworkers. Work/life balance is encouraged especially to those with family. Business-casual attire and behavior. Interesting projects due to client relationship with Xbox.

Cons

It's gotten worse as the company has grown. Favoritism is hilariously obvious, growth is minimal, promotions and raises are scarce. Work processes are bottlenecked because upper management is overworked and projects are pushed out without the right people looking at them or delayed indefinitely. Salary is below market-rate to the point you can qualify for low-income housing.

Pros

The projects are pretty fun and you get to work on some really cool IP with industry-leading titles and software. The team is super competent and worth their salt. I found myself learning a lot from the FTEs. The pay is really fair and competitive for the market rate due to the clients they work with.

Cons

Clients can be difficult to work with as there are many layers of red tape that have to be cut through and sometimes multi-international timezones for feedback. When the workload is good, it can be almost dizzying the amount of pieces need to be output and revised. File management is OK but could be improved upon a bit (OneDrive can be a headache). Workload can go from 100-0 almost overnight depending on the time of year and client budget.
