-Great for getting your foot in the door of the games industry -Gain a lot of experience across projects and possibly departments, valuable intial learning opportunity. Helps you jump to other companies after a few years -You get your name in the credits of major titles and has some additional perks like free PS Plus and games. -Many seniors are very approachable and love to answer questions. It's a cool experience to gain so much insight
Cons
-they are looking for scale, not individual talent or skill. Your growth matters little to them and most are treated as expendable. Most people are kept as contractors for years longer than they should be. If you have a problem, then leave and they will quickly replace you -the pay is on the low end of the spectrum -HR and Upper management is a joke when it comes to complaints about poor management or harassment. The people who have stayed the longest are basically on tenure and are untouchable.
We are sorry you didn't enjoy your experience here. We are committed to providing a diverse and equitable environment where all have a chance to thrive and grow. Because our people do tend to stay with us for a long time, depending on your role, it can be more of a challenge to move up. Last, we do take claims of harassment very seriously and have an open-door policy for all employees with no fear of retaliation.
