Pros
- The head of technology is a great boss who always puts your comfort first. - As the company does game porting you get to work on a larger variety of games than at a traditional gamedev company. - Minimal crunch time, I have only been asked to work overtime once and that was for a project with a specific and uncommon deadline. - The owner of the company is open to your requests, I have been allowed to work remotely full time and reduce my hours. - There is a generous flexitime system and free fruit and drink are provided in the office.
Cons
- Standard working hours are fairly long at a 40 hour work week. - The work can get repetitive, you will likely be fixing the same problems repeatedly on successive projects. - The internal tooling and build system is very flaky and prone to breaking but efforts are being made to improve this. - Pensions contributions are the legal minimum 1%.
