Pros

-Some of the brightest and most driven people at the mid to lower levels. -Former founders were very approachable people who would help out whenever they could -Quarterly events and perks were nice for their time -My manager and director was someone I trusted

Cons

-Current make up is top heavy with C-suite level executives who were all hired during pandemic and new to the company -Executive team is out of touch with regular workers at the company -Benefits and perks have not kept pace with industry and in some cases were scaled back -Too much focus on projects that look showy but dont create growth or value for customers -The company has a duel identity of a digital store and a publisher and currently the publisher side is enjoying the lions share of love

Pros

I have been at Humble for a couple of years and I decided to look at the reviews and it became clear that a lot of the negative reviews are based on a very difficult time in the company that we are now through, so I had to give my take. Long story short, this last year for Humble was not easy. There a reorg that impacted a number of people and it was tough. I can happily say that we have made it through this difficult time and are much stronger for it. Work flow is way better, communication is tight, bottom line there is zero drama! Kudos to management for making some tough decisions, we are better for it. Also plus of work from anywhere, very inclusive culture. Overall amazing company that truly live their values.

Cons

Last year was tough. Even though it was the right thing to do it was a challenging year.

Pros

- Fully Remote Work - Working with charities and seeing the effects of the work through revenue reports - Nice perks in quarterly gifts, zoom events, and discounts on games/media

Cons

- Steep learning curve that is used against you despite being warned about it considerably through hiring process. If you aren't pushing yourself to meet inconsistent practices, you're judged unfavorably and are places in a probationary area of the company. - Rude management that treats those who don't follow random, small changes terribly (ie - having face cam on zoom turned on for all meetings) - No consistency in terms of reporting issues with senior staff/management - Mixed messaging about responsibilities - Excluded from department changes if not favored by senior staff. - Concerns were often given 'care' in the moment but tossed to the side after a certain period of time - Strong-armed into participation of arbitrary rules with the threat of probationary action if not followed - Random meetings with HR staff under senior management without any forewarning, which could be followed by on-spot terminations
