Pros
- Some amazing staff that really care about the work they do and their player community. - Good exposure to multiple areas of game development. - Some extremely creative work and ideas happening. - Some of the nicest, sweetest and most unique people I've ever worked with and had the pleasure of working with.
Cons
- Some ethically and morally corrupt individuals holding high level positions throughout the studio. - In my view recruitment activity is sadly straight out of the 1980's carried out via parties and bars with no effort made to attract diverse and different types of people. Basically if you're like them, they like you. - Boys club, drinking, sexist, bullying culture amongst very high level managers. - So much bias it's scary! People hired into and promoted into roles they are clearly not qualified for. Mates are just straight out hired with no other candidates being seen or considered. - Numerous staff forced out because they questioned or challenged certain people. - Different department strategies almost every month with little to no actual organisational design support or guidance or long term thinking.
