Pros

What other reviewers say about this company is 100% true. They have awesome work life balance. They have good pay and benefits and perks. They have a mostly fun culture.

Cons

They forgot to mention the other dominant culture of this place. Rape culture. This is the type of place where lewd and sexist comments are allowed in company wide presentations even though complaints have been filed many times. But it gets worse. This is the type of place where individuals with a history of sexual misconduct are not terminated but are rewarded with promotions to senior levels. This is unacceptable and a completely backwards way of doing things. If someone is guilty of misconduct then that person should be fired - period. Also it should be said that many of the 4 and 5 star reviews on here are fake. We are routinely asked by upper management to post positive reviews and many of them are clearly written by upper management themselves.

All feedback is extremely important to us, so thank you for sharing your experience. To be clear, Certain Affinity does not agree with this characterization of our culture, events, or that we have allowed unprofessional behavior to go unaddressed. We do not support behavior that unreasonably interferes with another’s work environment, specifically including the type of behavior described in this post, and we are absolutely committed to creating a transparent, collaborative and comfortable workplace for all of our employees. We strive to provide a safe and open environment where the door is open to express opinions and give constructive feedback. When informed of potential violations of company policy, the leadership team works closely with HR to ensure that a proper investigation is conducted, all employees are heard, and issues are addressed appropriately.

Pros

- Talented developers and artists working across the teams - Some interesting technical experience from co-development projects - Opportunity to work with experienced individual contributors

Cons

- Constant project pivots leading to years of work that never ships - Multiple projects started and abandoned with little to show for resume - Direction changes frequently with little long-term planning - Leadership structure that creates heavy middle management but little accountability - Poor pay tier with long term employees making considerably less than new hires -Staff reductions handled poorly and with limited transparency - Focus on safe, derivative co-development projects rather than building original IP
