Pros

Charming people working there. The office team is fantastic trying to make people happy and keep the office enjoyable and eventful.

Cons

You will not grow your base salary especially if you've already started on the higher end. Even though they already give everyone under market average salaries, they might still give seniors lower than the inflation rate even though you over-perform as an excuse to balance the salary gap within the company. So probably, your inferiors will get higher raises whilst you get very little. I'd suggest don't waste your time and put extreme effort into showing your skills, and overachieving your tasks as they won't be acknowledged anyway. And from what I feel, it's hard to grow in terms of positions as well depending on your department. And the creativity in making new games within its studio is very low, they're just with different skins and repetitives of the previous games.

Thank you for taking the time to review our company on Glassdoor although, of course, we are extremely disappointed to hear that you feel this way. We fully recognise that, as an organisation, we are a “work in progress” and still have a lot to do and are working hard to improve things all of the time – it was good to see that there at least a couple of things which you feel we are doing well. The recent engagement survey, in which 95% of employees participated, highlighted some particular areas to focus on – Innovation, Leadership, and Career Development are all areas that were called out for attention and work are already underway on these topics. In the meantime, we will continue to run events like Hackathon to provide an opportunity for everyone to contribute ideas, and will also continue to invest heavily in the development of Managers and employees across the business. We would be delighted to hear your personal suggestions and ideas for how we can improve so please do share them directly with your manager, your Exec team member, or someone from the P&O team.

Pros

Good to start in games industry. The company has impressive year on year growth. Functional programming on the server team. Great view and office perks such as pizza day and playing FIFA on PS4 on a big screen. Lots of talented people.

Cons

Building parking spots just for a few selected managers, if you want to park your car you need to do it outside. Tremendous political environment that causes entropy on development teams. Agile methodologies in place are taken to the extreme, in an almost autistic way, which ends up hurting development. No longer a familiar place, everyone that used to be part of that original group is out and the company struggle to not to become a more corporate place has actually had the opposite effect. No career progression and payments are not above average, or even average despite company having 60% YoY growth.
