Pros

I have been at Humble for a couple of years and I decided to look at the reviews and it became clear that a lot of the negative reviews are based on a very difficult time in the company that we are now through, so I had to give my take. Long story short, this last year for Humble was not easy. There a reorg that impacted a number of people and it was tough. I can happily say that we have made it through this difficult time and are much stronger for it. Work flow is way better, communication is tight, bottom line there is zero drama! Kudos to management for making some tough decisions, we are better for it. Also plus of work from anywhere, very inclusive culture. Overall amazing company that truly live their values.

Cons

Last year was tough. Even though it was the right thing to do it was a challenging year.

Pros

I absolutely respect and admire our leadership team. They really do care about the employees and the company. Humble is a rare company that actually lives and breath it's values and mission! Humble leadership team uses the company values and mission to make decisions to the best of their ability. I have witnessed the leadership team be very thoughtful and considerate about how things are managed/handled. We are really lucky to have a mature, non-egotistical and unselfish leadership team who are not out for more power and themselves. They genuinely care about their people and do best by them. Humble just recently overhauled our Anniversary program and updated our perks based on employee feedback. I I have never witnessed a company put so much thought and time into ensuring our benefits reflected what employees want, while incorporating our company values. Ex: Employees get to pick from a handful of gift options, along with each gift being associated with a Force for Good (BIPOC Founded, Social Impact Driven, Sustainable, Female Founded, LGBQT+ Founded, Small Business, etc.). The people at Humble are amazing too! Everyone is busy but we are all working towards similar goals and willing to help each other. I truly enjoy going to work (Remotely) everyday.

Cons

There are always pros and cons to having a parent company (Ziff Davis) when you are the size of Humble Bundle. Perk - You typically get better benefits overall because they can get better deals across their portfolio than Humble could by itself. However, the Con is that the parent company controls your budget for funding headcount, raises, projects etc. I think it is especially difficult because Humble is unique regarding the type of business we are within their portfolio. There is no other company like us. There have been a lot of changes since I started at the company (Good and tough changes) but the leadership has tried their best to manage it as best as they can. Sometimes leaders have to make tough discussions for the health of the company. The layoffs that we have endured have been hard on both those immediately impacted and those who remained but when you have worked for a handful of companies - it's the way of life (however that doesn't lessen the impact). At least I can honestly say the Humble Leadership tried to handle it with thoughtfulness and kind and that should say a lot with regarding to how other companies have been handled these types of decisions.

Pros

I really like everybody in the company. I have been here a bit over 4 years and I can honestly say this is a great company with great people. We get to work in games, raise money for charity and the work life balance is great. My team is awesome! Everybody is really committed to doing a great job. Most in management are pretty cool and listen.

Cons

Post restructure there is has been some tension which I think is being reflected in reviews. I had friends that were impacted and it sucks, but there are people that are kind of holding grudges against management and other parts of the company and I don't think this is fair. I think this is coming out in some of the most recent reviews and ultimately thats why I wanted to write this because a I don't think its portraying an accurate view of what its like to work at Humble.
