Pros

Interesting projects using a variety of technologies, a nice steady pace of work to do, A great view in the office, fantastic coffee treats and ample supply of canned sodas in the break room, nice big desk, several monitors to keep you engaged, fun outings, cruises, breakfasts every other week, much more than I can possibly remember. At CIE Studios I'm able to accomplish my tasks, and have a great time doing it. Don't pass up (or treat poorly) your opportunity at CIE Studios.

Cons

Sometimes people don't know what they want, which is obnoxious.

Pros

Cie is an organization full of talented individuals who are experts in their field. No matter the title, Cie's leaders give you a seat at the table. They encourage you to share ideas and try new things. I've never learned so much under one roof. Challenges days exist at Cie, but boring ones do not. There is no other team that you would want in your corner.

Cons

No cons come to mind.

Pros

Are they a startup incubator, a content marketing agency, or a venture studio? No one at the company even knows! If you want to work with a bunch of incompetent people give Cie a try! Leadership constantly shifts the company’s priorities, chasing buzzwords and trends rather than fostering a clear and focused strategy. This leaves teams scrambling to hit moving targets, often without proper guidance or resources. There’s little to no long-term planning, which results in projects being abandoned or pivoted at the whim of the execs. Employees are treated like expendable assets, not valued contributors. Promotions and opportunities handed out based on favoritism rather than merit. Meanwhile, truly talented people either burn out or get laid off without performance evaluations.

Cons

No room for any professional growth

Thank you, your feedback is noted. Cie's mission is to build and grow innovative companies that solve real-world problems. This requires constant adaptation, and our current unique approach - blending startup incubation, venture building, and corporate partnerships - is intentional. It’s embracing change that has allowed us to drive meaningful impact since 1998. That adaptability has led to real results: we created Cie Games, which was acquired by GluMobile for $100M in 2013; we launched Nativo, which patented native advertising and raised $32M in funding; we built ASAP Tire, which was acquired in 2018; and we grew Titan School Solutions, which was acquired by LINQ for $75M. These are just a few examples of how our ability to evolve has fueled success. Clarity and stability are important, and we continuously refine how we operate to balance both. Growth at Cie is based on impact, leadership, and the ability to develop others. We prioritize promoting from within and ensuring our team members have opportunities to contribute in meaningful ways. We’re proud of what we’ve built and remain committed to fostering an environment where driven individuals can thrive.
