Pros

For the Montreal studio: - Great perks: kindergarten, free gym with kinesiologists available to give classes and build tailored programs, bonuses based on game profitability or studio profitability, medical clinic on site, etc. - Opportunity to work on large projects (AAA games), smaller ones, or even in satellite groups such as the Technology Group, IT, etc. - Large company so there is a lot of opportunity for moving around in the company, especially at a large studio like the one in Montreal.

Cons

- Triple AAA project teams tend to get very large, especially towards the end, which slows many things down and may contribute to feeling like a tiny cog in a huge machine. - People working on games often have to work unpaid overtime (supper is provided).

Pros

Remote work, free games. Good co-workers.

Cons

Horrendous pay, expectations of work absolutely unreasonable. Turnover rate pretty high, and instead of hiring new employees, just had the remaining team take over the work that required like 10+ employees. Then after requiring 200% productivity to make up for the lack of a team, complained about teams.
