Pros

+ Location: San Diego is an amazing place to live. Buzzing restaurant scene, beautiful beaches, easy commute, reasonable cost of living. + Work / Life Balance: No crunch, good hours.

Cons

- Leadership: Schizophrenic and completely unorganized. Constantly changing plans that disrupt and demotivate team members. Games are treated like line items on a budget sheet. Zero interest in building a positive brand that gamers love. Complete and total lack of focus. - Tools: Archaic and limiting. You cannot do your best work at Daybreak because you will always be fighting the tech the games are built on. I’ve worked with less-than-ideal tools before, but the tech that powers our games here is over a decade behind. - Culture: It barely exists. There’s no rallying cry to unite people. Company “pillars” feel like arbitrary statements made by someone in HR with no understanding of games. Very little camaraderie and passion due to a complete lack of empowerment.
