1 - 4.0Apr 5, 2012Technical Support AnalystCurrent EmployeeMontreal, QC
Pros
I think the best reason to work here is that the company itself is a great learning environment. As being part of the network team, have been exposed to many new technologies. I can say that my team is superb, fully qualified, intelligent and FUN! They let us drink beer at our desk! So it's kinda happy-go-lucky. At the same time everyone gets their job done. It's kinda got a college vibe to it. And, if you tell a girl you work here she'll be impressed 80% of the time.
Cons
none really. They could pay us more, but I could also look for another job if I really wanted more money.

- 1.0Aug 10, 20223D ArtistFormer Employee, more than 1 yearToronto, ON
Pros
Working with friends was fun at first
Cons
-below industry average salary(by a lot).If you complain about it, your manager will tell you that you’re toxic.. -Factory like team structure, everyone’s replaceable. Responsibilities are very segmented, you never get to claim anything as your own which can be demotivating for artists -they don’t care about employees growth. -they spy on employees -nepotism and politics everywhere -they don’t listen to their employees, there’s literally 0 way to voice concerns anywhere within the company. -projects are mediocre at best, they used to be cool 10 years ago maybe Overall it was an extremely toxic work environment to the point I have to start therapy after leaving this studio. It’s not a bad place to start out but if you already have work exp in the industry, why settle for Ubi when there are better paying remote jobs out there?
