- 5.0Sep 17, 2022Senior Software EngineerCurrent Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
I used to be afraid of launches because they'd come close to killing me in the past, but DW is so used to them it's a finely tuned machine. I guess having to work on so many games has left them little choice but to make it sustainable. It's unnervingly healthy. Everyone is really nice. I didn't believe it at first but it's been a year.
Cons
Big companies have complexity. Travel, opaque HR procedures, lots of systems. Gotta fit in with ATVI. It's not really a problem, more of a mild annoyance.
