Pros

I've been part of the Unity journey since the early days, and have seen the company grow beyond our wildest imaginations: this could and should merely have been a good-but-small software vendor, but through the really hard work of an ever increasing number of smart people, good luck, and some visionary turns by the leadership it's turned into one of the primary computing platforms, achieving dramatic leadership across the games industry. Coming around to my local office and visiting our other office I am always happy to meet incredibly clever and passionate people, most doing the best and most meaningful work of their lives. There's many of us now, yet very few jerks find a way to come around and fewer if any a way to stay and succeed. In the earlier days, the work and our mission to democratize game development was its own perk (but there were few others). Now the company treats us well across the board with competitive salaries and option packages, excellent flexibility and respect for the individual, and a healthy work-life balance for those who prefer it.

Cons

Few if any (and fewer than ever before). It can be a little hard to find your way around the company, but if you spend the effort you'll find yourself welcome after all.

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 Outdated resources from 2019-2023 used for training.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.
