Pros

Good salary for entry level positions Remote friendly company Work at home allowance

Cons

- Nepotism between hiring decisions that are obvious from the outside teams looking in - Huge discrepancies between colleagues that can over double of someone’s salary without having more responsability or experience - Decision making focused on quick results with unrealistic ETAs that led to a shift in the company's OKRs in just a matter of days - The company went through a recent lay-off that involved at least 10 people from different teams with some managers not showing up to exit interviews and without giving any relevant feedback to their employees - The company has bi-weekly cocktail nights that were fun at first, but now is filled with people sharing their frustrations and demotivation about the current state of the company - Now the company is focused on two of their games spending several of the company's resources and ignoring good games in their catalog - Recently almost all the new hires for the HR team have decided to leave the company with reasoning connected to the lack of support and huge push back from their department head - The company's processes rely of several meetings throughout the day that carry on to more meetings to clarify the disagreements from the previous ones - There is no current internal process that allows employees to improve their soft and hard skills neither there is a employee's performance review process implemented

Pros

The people I got to work with were some of the best I ever meet at a company, Above average salary Possibility to work full remote form anywhere

Cons

FRVR seems to have one business practice and that is throw sh*t at the wall and see what sticks, But not a lot of that actually stuck, instead of looking for a clear path and going on that and structure it in a way that makes sense. Because of that every 5-6 months there's a purge that affects great people and last time I survived the purge, this time after shuffling teams mine was taken out of commission after a month or two cause we weren't needed anymore,
