Next Level Games Reviews

Former Employee – worked at Next Level Games as a contractor for less than a year

Pros – NLG is a fantastic studio that makes great games. They treat their employees right, and it really shows in how happy everyone is to come to work everyday.

Cons – They are a smallish studio, and they keep it that way by hiring the "extra" people on contract. This also means no vacation, benefits or sick days for those on contract. It's hard to get fulltime work here, which is too bad.
