Pros

Great people (except the studio leadership) to work with.

Cons

I think senior leadership would be the reason (specially the CEO) if studio fails to deliver. They layoff people randomly and you learn on Monday someone you were working with is gone. They give the performance reason but in majority of cases layoffs happened after those people have been working for the company for more than 6 months to 2 years and suddenly the performance was bad. If Gav (CEO) does not like you start looking for a new job.

Pros

Great team members. Great compensation. Supportive direct line manager.

Cons

Sociopathic CEO. Archaic project structure. Lots of people followed Gav out of Playground yet regularly strive to emulate how things were done there. Jobs for mates is rare but does happen on occasion.
