Pros

- Most of the co-workers are nice and highly skilled - Compensation is OK - Nice benefits - Tech stack is interesting - Massive scale of data

Cons

- No career progression if your work is not classified as "high impact". Meaning people with good connections will work on the new and fancy projects and rest will be left with all the maintenance work on legacy systems - Lack of documentation practices. Two years old Slack-threads and source code are the best documentation you can find - Understaffed teams - Constant addition of middle-management layers - Most of the middle-managers doesn't add much value - All the decision makers are in US - Almost no options other than ads specific roles in Helsinki

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 Outdated resources from 2019-2023 used for training.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.
