      Perhaps the most interesting company in the video games industry.

      Pros

      * Absurdly intelligent people everywhere * Flat organizational hierarchy * Accessible upper management (even the CEO) * Carefully managed strong growth of core business * Thoughtful and patient investment in many other verticals

      Cons

      * Compensation packages are below market rate for San Francisco * No stock options except for upper management (though you can fight for them and win) * HR and accounting appear disorganized and underinvested in

      Unity has potential but keeps repeating old patterns

      Pros

      The people at Unity are among the most passionate and committed I've ever met. Unity's projects are consistently interesting and cutting-edge. Depending on the role, there can be a degree of flexibility in job responsibilities.

      Cons

      Frequent layoffs primarily affecting individual contributors, leading to overwork and frustration for remaining employees. Financial instability, with leadership retaining their roles despite minimal impact on the company's success, while cutting essential individual contributors. The HR leadership demonstrates toxic behavior and favoritism, leading to ineffective employee support. Recruiters without direct HR experience are often promoted into roles that demand specific HR expertise due to HR favoritism. Limited growth and career opportunities due to leadership's lack of vision.

      Pros

      Right now, there aren't any real pros. Pay and benefits are not comparable to what you can get at Microsoft or Amazon or Google. This used to be compensated for by the supportive, nurturing culture, and the chance that your stock options would be worth a lot of money someday. However, over the course of 2022-2023, the culture has completely evaporated: employees no longer trust executives, or in many cases their managers; working 36-40 hour weeks is now much more difficult because of all the layoffs and other financial cuts (e.g. not renewing very useful tools, so now that work needs to be done less efficiently); and the total lack of strategic vision makes working with acquired companies or being part of a canceled project feel terrible, because there's no general belief that said company was actually a good acquisition, or that the project in question really should have been cancelled.

      Cons

      Pay and benefits aren't terrible, but they aren't really close to what you can get at Microsoft or Google or Amazon. (I'm talking about engineers and PMs, I don't know anything about HR or Finance or LCA or whatever). I left Microsoft after 22+ years to join Unity back when it was still more like a family than a company, and it was the best decision I ever made, despite taking a pay cut and losing unvested options. Now, however, it's in the same general ballpark as working at Microsoft, in terms of quality of life; but the overall compensation is still what you'd expect from a family-style business.
