    Pros

    - Flexible starting hours. - Very good benefits package. - Lots of paid parties/events.

    Cons

    - Low pay compared to industry standards. - The work is not very challenging, leading to limited room for self-improvement or taking initiative. - A focus on having employees simply be present over rewarding good work. - Very few paid days off leading to spreading of sickness (2 sick, 3 mobile).

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    -Nice people, including upper management and CEO -Very good 'superficial' perks (parties, activities, free stuff), more traditional benefits also decent (free gym membership, healthy snacks, health insurance etc.) -Flexible working hours, relaxed environment, cool office -Nice location in the Old Port -Great work-life balance -Impossible to move up, very difficult or impossible to move to other positions within the company

    Cons

    -Salaries are a joke -Many completely incompetent people in middle management, most of them have worked at the company from the very beginning, a lot of nepotism (completely useless people are able to hold onto their jobs because their boss is their friend) -Many producers/team leads are completely careless which translates to the rest of the team following their example (meeting rooms are always a mess, people don't clean up after themselves in the kitchen) -The company offers training/professional development opportunities ONLY if it's in the company's best interest / they will majorly benefit from it -HR can be extremely picky when it comes to hiring people, supposedly due to their high standards, although often the rejected applicants end up working in the same position at a different, more successful video game company -Despite the scrutiny of HR, most of our recent games have not been very successful at all

    Thanks for the review. We value your input and appreciate your feedback. Our employees’ well-being is important to us and one of our core values. This is partly why we put lots of attention and care into planning events, offering perks and advantages, as well as specialized training courses for employees and management. That being said, we can always make improvements and are always working to ensure competitive salaries, which include yearly bonuses, extra vacation, benefits, etc. Thanks again for your comments.

    No Training or Communication

    Pros

    Ludia offers good perks and benefits, but thats pretty much it and this app has a 20 word minimum so Im struggling to fill this because my experience there was terrible

    Cons

    During the hiring process I was told over and over how transparent everyone was and how much they valued good communication, but after I was hired I saw that it was really the opposite. seems they hired more then one person for my position under the guise of a full time permanent job and then chose out of us after that, and I was fired after only one month. during that month, I was given virtually no training or instructions about what was expected of me, I worked on more then one team and communication was non-existent on both teams. I was never made to feel welcome and people were actually mean and cold. I was not even given a clear reason or any details about why they fired me either, just that my work was not the level they expected, problem was that no one ever told me exactly what they expected. even when I asked for specifics, they also were not open to any suggestions or ideas, seems they dont want people to show initiative.

    Great team vibe, small enough to get to know everyone and communication is easier. Good benefits and perks, HR is very attentive to employee needs .

    Job level tiers can sometimes be arbitrarily defined depending on the position.

    Pros

    - Ludia has been my best experience working at a studio in the industry; it feels like your superiors care about you. - The projects are fun to work on. - The people there are welcoming, professional and hardworking. The work environment is great (even in a work-from-home situation).

    Cons

    - The salary is subpar compared to other studios (despite good benefits). - Growth within the company is slow, and turnover is high.
