Pros

Almost without exception the people I worked with here have been lovely. The company used to (and still does, to an extent) have empathy as an emphasis for how work, and for the parts of the company I have worked in, and you can tell. People treat each other with respect and kindness.

Cons

There has been a steady stream of layoffs for several years, and it is quite demoralizing always wondering if you will be in the next one. The reductions in force mean that from an engineering side there are a lot of things that need maintaining without a lot of people to do that work. It seems every team is under-resourced.

Pros

Very little positive to say. Nice in office lunches. Peers are certainly passionate, but seem to work 10+ hour days and take pride in being on early and up late every day.

Cons

Onboarding was a disjointed mess, with sessions led solely by my manager. Outdated resources from 2019-2023 used for training. Severe lack of coherent materials to reference. Unclear strategy, talk tracks, playbooks. Frequent role churn which was not made transparent during the interview process. Team operates so far outside of the core Unity product. Frequent reorgs and restructuring. No real idea how my role impacted the larger business. Unity’s adtech products are ultimately very uninteresting. Can’t speak to sentiment about working with their core product, but if you have to sell iAds, Tapjoy, Offerwall, or Aura (their most mind numbing product) - don’t waste your time.
