Pros

Not a lot of oversight of quality of work, so if you are looking for a high paying job with very little work to do this is a great place

Cons

No job security, no vision, treats staff like the enemy. Committing illegal acts is a regular occurance for Unity lawyers and HR staff. As a result HR is completely evicerated by having to do all their dirty work. Don't get pregnant at Unity, you will be laid off. Bullying is tolerated and there has been extremely costly claims against the company due to this. Don't sell your company to Unity, go to Epic or Adobe or whoever else, or at least accept that Unity will run whatever you did in to the ground in the next 3 years, so be prepared to get the hell out.

Pros

Good work life balance Nice office

Cons

Hiring like crazy and then lays people off. Management searching for growth in diversification but helpless in recognizing their main assets is the saas model they already have. EPIC games is a very tough competitor offering better product for free.

Pros

Still retains a significant but dwindling number of extremely experienced developers and engineers who have built incredible games. Engineering work itself is well executed and teams enjoy a lot of the work being done. Many of the products are excellent and its enjoyable to see games being build with it.

Cons

All senior management roles are being drained out of Europe and elsewhere into North America. Sites are being closed or recruitment limited. Individuals and managers are considered replaceable. Extremely capable and highly skilled engineers have been let go, purely to meet changing staffing targets. This can happen even on extremely successful and profitable projects. Salaries for many job roles are on the low side, the compensation cycle has also increased to once in 18 months for 2023. Has decayed from one of the very best companies to work for a couple of years ago. An example of this employee survey results have dropped hugely from almost completely positive in previous years and are now not as openly shared as in the past. Really hoping this decay and staff attrition will stop soon.
