Pros

The people you work with are some of the most talented in the industry

Cons

If you are a designer, be prepared to have your designs thrown out or overridden by C-Staff If you are a programmer, be prepared to be blamed for every problem No longer any sense of job security, most of the best people have left or are preparing to leave. According to C-Staff, "people first" means doing anything you can to get the game done, including staying late and skipping meals. Many benefits will be cut back due to budget cuts AAAA culture is embarrassing when you actively attempt to hide problems with the game to increase morale and don't address them before launch.
