Pros

If you get in the inner circle of the manager in your department you're set for life. Don't need to do anything and will still be well rewarded.

Cons

A lot of politics and every department has its own fiefdom where the manager keeps a close inner circle of friends, associates and even relatives that get very well looked after and practically do nothing. If there was a corruption index for companies like there is for countries this company would be ranked alongside the likes of Zimbabwe, India etc

Pros

- Good people in game development that are passionate about their jobs. - Cool office.

Cons

- Lackluster pay way below industry averages. - Upper management was uninterested in the company at the time and just wanted revolving door worker bees to figure out all of their problems for them. - Physical based hardware was severely outdated and had no discussions with software team before making pivotal decisions to stay competitive causing all sorts of problems. - Daily headaches working around a mountain of tech debt in proprietary tools, which is eventually shipped to production after tedious QA.
