Be Organized, Be Successful
Jan. 20, 2023 - Back Office in Frankfurt am MainRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
In a company like Crytek, if you're organized, work comes easy. The workload is not excessive, the hours are good and the expectations are reasonable. The main issue is the inherent chaos that comes with iterative development inherent in the games industry aligned with the CrytekChaosTM.
Cons
If you need structure from the outside, Crytek might be a difficult place to start out. Chaos is the norm sometimes and there is a very hands-off approach from management, which means you need to find ways to organize yourself.

Friendly, positive culture and rewarding work
Jan. 12, 2023 - Junior 3D ArtistRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Friendly and talented people. Great work-life balance, and an encouraging and inclusive atmosphere. Opinions are equally considered, and you have a large amount of autonomy in your work.
Cons
Sometimes decisions trickles down by casual conversations rather than by proper processes
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Very nice projects, nice culture and many talented people to learn from.
Cons
Planning is sometimes little bit of
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Pleasant work atmosphere with nice people
Cons
Information flow from top to bottom is limited

Depends on the team you land in
Jul. 13, 2022 - Anonymous Employee in Frankfurt am MainRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Some absolute pearls in the people working there Work ethic is good, they don't expect you to work extra hours outside of your core hours Flexible with WFH/Full remote Benefits are good - Commute ticket, gym membership etc. Looks good on a resume
Cons
Some teams are great, some I'd say to avoid. Upper management is completely disconnected from reality and unprofessional Direct management/middle management and HR don't follow up with harassment claims Racist and sexist remarks are normalized all around the office Other employees from random departments telling you how to do your job in a very unprofessional manner and nothing gets done from direct management
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Flexible Tech is amazing Teams are nice
Cons
None I can think of so far
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
used to be a good place to enter the industry
Cons
almost went bankrupt now property of sega:D
Hi, thank you for the review on our Glassdoor profile. We realize that this review is referring to Crytek Black Sea only (Sega aquisition) and 2017, five years ago. We want to point out that Crytek is still a great place to enter the industry and we would be happy to convince you about that. We have some exciting projects in the pipeline (C4) and would be thrilled to bring back more veterans as well. If you are interested you can check out our career page and the team can talk with you about it in an interview :)

Pros
Good Management for a company
Cons
Pay does not match the work load
