Activision – “Small fish, big pond - good experience but good luck.

Oct 10, 2009

3.0

Activision Quality Assurance Tester in Santa Monica, CA:   (Past Employee - 2009)

Pros

Opportunity to work on major licenses and titles, witness development process, opportunity to improve game product, good processes, dedicated management

Cons

Too many temporary employees that can lack passion putting strain on other team members, recognition of professionalism and dedication is not given soon enough causing some stagnation, separation and disregard from "full time qa" toward their "temp" brethren who can be working hard to separate themselves from the rest, strange attitudes and strictness regarding breaks/lunch with little regard towards real-life emergencies and issues

Advice to Senior Management

Allow opportunity for lower rank staff to provided feedback to their managers in an unbiased and anonymous fashion, some of the "senior qa" have unprofessional attitudes and seem to think they are "Safe" with their position and can therefore be sarcastic and offer uncalled for, negative and unconstructive feedback
