Pros

Great benefits (e.g. mental health 100% covered, 20 days off @ all levels…) Welcoming culture Space to innovate Good internal mobility

Cons

Depends on the org you are joining My personal experience is with the AI org and is completely different from other orgs (I am told). The AI org seems to be trying to find a profitable direction where it used to be more research focused. This can be great if you get excited by applications outside of gaming, direct customer interaction, and quickly changing directions of products. However it can mean a lot of chaos and staffing issues (especially on the more senior end). Great for someone who wants room to create new products but sub-optimal if you want to experience a highly professional dev environment. Internal tooling and review is weak compared to bigger corporations (but IMO this is highly outweighed by all the benefits and freedom).

Pros

Amazing culture. Employees respect each other. Not just due to grass-roots peer-to-peer respect, but mutual respect is a core piece of how leadership pushes the company forward. The executive level leadership is transparent, honest, and humble. Despite recently IPO'ing, the leadership remains long-term focused, and employee focused. They are not cutting corners, cutting benefits, or reducing the level to which they listen to the company at large.

Cons

As we grow, we are slowly learning to be a larger company. Early on, Unity was entirely engineering driven. In that world, one- or two-engineer teams would spin up to solve problems. This led to a very agile and quick moving company, but we have somewhat out grown that. For one, our problems are often too big for just one or two engineers to hop-on then hop-off. Second, we have too many engineers to avoid repeat, overlapping, or conflicting work, if they all work on whatever pops up. Overall we are headed in a good direction. We are remaining engineering & bottoms-up driven, while building infrastructure to support larger teams, and larger communication efforts. The con here is that we're still learning how to do this. How many people are needed in roles like product or program management? How do large and disjoint teams divide up giant initiatives? And, how do we balance supporting legacy systems and developing new ones?
