- "Management are good people but seem scatter brained at times and like they can’t quite decide where they want to go with their next games and growing the studio." (in 5 reviews)

- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
The position I was in allowed for great work/life balance and great flexibility. I learned a lot about online moderation and worked with many great colleagues and the Community management team was helpful.
Cons
Hours can vary from week to week and upward mobility was limited.
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
talented people, great superior, awesome at Halloween party deco and social challenges throughout the year. Dope office, top floor with insane view of mountains, etc. Great to give a lap around the building on breaks and no problem with parking. Great health insurance, and I liked the match up to 3% towards 401k. Flexible hours as long as you are inside core hours as part of your hours. Understanding company, they usually are open to adjustment to accommodate you. Great innovation days and Lagoon (old days ).
Cons
Not very transparent, multiple unexpected lay-offs throughout the years (which doesn't make it reliable). A fair amount of crunching or cutting features due to bad production/management. After leaving the company I realized my salary wasn't even close to a fair salary, so be smart when you give your numbers. Not very clear how to grow in the company.

Pros
Clark Stacey is really touchy around my children, he gives off weird vibes.
Cons
Cons, Clark. He is controlling and enjoys sniffing his employees doing their day to day work.

Pros
Your coworkers are great. They work hard and can be good friends. Worklife balance is nice, I didn't have to work too much overtime.
Cons
Management is a mess. Leadership pretends to have transparency but are constantly leaving employees in the dark. The CEO only cares about analytics and doesn't actually care about the quality of the products they produce or the team building it. Team members have less say on design than the analytics team.

Pros
Great con oh sky to work for great work and hold life balance. Haven’t worked crunch time in the past 7 years I have been there.
Cons
Management are good people but seem scatter brained at times and like they can’t quite decide where they want to go with their next games and growing the studio.
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
- Great work/life balance--no mandatory crunch. I'm able to work my hours and then go home, and crunch culture is not the law of the land here. - New production staff that are doing good work to tighten up the way things are run, get development running smoother, and better ensure there isn't crunch across any teams. - Diversity on the rise. It's been a process, and while the company still isn't perfect, there are more people fighting to steer the ship in the right direction. More diverse hires means more accountability and change for the better. I hope! (The alt-right employee mentioned in another review no longer works here either and that's quite a boon) - I enjoy the work I do, I love being able to work on products for kids and teens to enjoy. The company cares about the products they make and the people who make them. - I've had opportunities to expand my responsibilities in meaningful ways because my teammates/supervisors listen to what I have to contribute.
Cons
- Lack of a proper HR system. If I have a problem that requires nuance, I need to go through a supervisor.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
-work with amazing talent -a huge passionate audience that is really fun to create for -used to have no crunch
Cons
-lack of respect for the audience. an attitude of shame for making 'girl games' -extremely difficult for women to get credit or move up at all -rampant nepotism -will always give in to conservative forces within company -almost 100 percent white in a very diverse city -speaking up is punished -they employ openly alt right people -when company loses money they make workers suffer for it with mandatory crunch -the company has been slowly downsizing so not sure how long it has

Pros
- Flexible for family time
Cons
- No very 'advance' friendly
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Work-life balance was great. PTO and other benefits were pretty solid.
Cons
This studio is the definition of insular and traditional, with strong enforcement of favoritism that sours everything else. Diversity is a bad word here. The same handful of long-time employees make all the decisions, and there is little room for innovation, constructive criticism, or anything they don't agree with. Office management/HR department frequently failed to provide the most basic studio support, including several errors that really should have been reported to the state labor board. Upper management is a self-aggrandizing boy's club, especially with tech and production. The siloing of departments never seems to be addressed, even after years of being acknowledged, and project management and pipelines suffer immensely for it.
