Business Outlook
Pros
Flexible hours, good benefits, out of office trips and events paid for by the studio. HR help whenever they can, they're approachable and easy to talk to. Good studio location near the metro (we've recently moved). Good job security which comes with working for a big company.
Cons
Most of the people at the top making the big decisions are only really good at regurgitating marketing spiel and have no applicable or useful development knowledge. There are A LOT of giant egos in this studio. The salary is bad. Seems the only way to get promoted without waiting an age is to leave, come back then ask for more. There's no real reward for people who have stayed.
