Pros

Health Benefits, PTO, Food, Campus life, Location.

Cons

In our department, most of us were affected in some way espeically in outtings. The male managers got it worse. He would often poke fun at their masculinity. I asked why they wouldn't come forward and they didn't out of fear. It's true. Lay low and quiet, you might just survive. Fast forward and they did. They moved to different departments and were promoted. The manager who did the harassing was kind of reprimanded(for other reasons)/promoted. Why? He brought in good numbers.

Hi, my name is Michael and I'm on the Talent Partner team. I want to be very clear that we have a zero tolerance policy pertaining to any discriminatory or harassing behavior at Riot. Whether during a department outing or while on campus, we expect all Rioters to treat others with and be treated with respect. If you were impacted or observed other Rioters being impacted by behaviors that do not fit our policy, I would like to hear more. If you or any of those impacted are open to providing specifics, please email me at mcullen@riotgames.com. Further, as your review alludes to people staying silent due to fear, I also want to emphasize that we have policies in place to protect those coming forward against retaliation or any other safety concerns.

Pros

Passionate co-workers who are all hyper talented, amazing fringe benefits, work/life balance, dedicated managers to help you with your career, and passionate players to serve.

Cons

Egos are rewarded you have to be really good at self promotion, the company is so big that you can feel lost if you don't invest in networking often, layoffs happen at Riot now

Pros

Great benefits, pays well, can work on some very interesting problems.

Cons

Work hours are from 10-7 and hardly anyone actually works that, so stuff can move at a snail pace. Getting help from central teams can be painful, especially if they're way off hours. Some of the culture can get a bit overwhelming too and you can end up feeling pretty lonely if you don't drink the koolaid.
