Business outlook
Pros
Casual and fun work environment; great products; talented and passionate co-workers; personal satisfaction of working on something that people enjoy; highly challenging work managing iterative and creative development
Cons
Hit and miss success of videogames across the industry and at EA (spend 2 years of your life working on a product that is forgotten 2 months after release); long hours leading up to game release; managing younger, less professional employees at times can be an extreme challenge; turnover at some of the studios makes it more difficult to develop products to schedule
