Pros

interesting problems, fun culture, free food

Cons

lack of accountability and leadership. engineers with long tenure get a free pass for doing nothing. hiring bar is set so low just to meet head counts. HR and recruiters are known to post fake reviews on here,

Thanks for the review- sounds like you like some of our perks, the food, and our culture. Regarding reviews, our HR team is focused on things like culture, training, and benefits, and doesn't have the time to write reviews- plus there are technology filters and algorithms the site has set up to detect fraud. I encourage you to reach out to your manager or anyone on our leadership team to discuss your issues in person.

Pros

Cool office. Presence in gaming industry. Lunch and snacks. Game room.

Cons

Zero career growth. Zero promotion or merit based raises. Zero feedback cycle from your manager. Performance reviews are meaningless because it's nothing more than just a glorified 1:1. Your manager either forget or miscommunicate what you say during performance review. You get nothing out of these 3Qs. I think this structure is there just as a way to deny you raises.

Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like your manager is not skilled at handling performance, career or comp conversations or something is not clicking--sorry about that! Because there are lots of employees who get useful feedback from their managers (during 3Q or just normal days), get merit increases (some more than once a year) and even stock grant refreshers. It's a bummer you are having this experience and encourage you to talk with your manager, next level manager or someone in HR. Also you can reach out to me directly as well.

Pros

fantastic environment with really great people. Very inclusive and an honest dedication to keep it that way. technically a start-up but big and successful enough that it doesn't carry the typical risks of working at a start-up. Opportunity to work with innovative technologies. Management that legitimately cares about their employees. Ill be honest, as someone on the autism spectrum I spent 15 years working for places that I didnt fit in, didnt have any feelings (one way or the other) about the product or service i was working on and just resigned myself to the fact that maybe the perfect job i was envisioning for myself simply didnt exist. I would sit at company meetings where everyone else would pass the company koolaid around and happily take a sip, while i would secretly roll my eyes. I didnt understand how people could love a company or a job. ITS A JOB AFTER ALL. That all changed when I started working at Unity. For the first time I work at a company where I believe in our product and love what I do. Most important of all...I feel like I fit in. I feel like people go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome and a part of things. From my first conversation with the recruiter up til my most recent conversation with my boss this whole experience has been amazing. Of course, its still a job and there are ups and downs and bad days and good days. But overall I love coming to work and am so thankful I work for a company where being inclusive isnt just some goal on a memo. It really matters here.

Cons

Moving to new office but until that happens we are getting more and more crowded and continue to hire more and more people, Some teams are having to sit at a satelitte office which isnt ideal, hard to feel part of things if you arent sitting with the rest of the company. Salary is only mildly competitive to rest of industry but once they go pubic im guessing this will improve. Lunch is free so its kinda hard to complain but I bet they pay good money for that lunch and I cant imagine that there isnt a better catering company for the money they must be spending. ( i know what a silly thing to complain about, first world problems)
