      Pros

      - not much OT/crunch - friendly co-workers - decent salary

      Cons

      CEO has been dragging the internal project on for way too long, and the project should have cancelled years ago. This project is massively outdated and will not perform well if it's ever released. A theory is that the project is being dragged on intentionally so the CEO is perceived of having some sort of value to the company. CEO also has trust issues and keeps employees/projects from reaching full potential. CEO is also the "Creative Director", giving them too much control over the direction of design. Lead Designers do not have any creative freedom and report directly to him and basically just follow his misguided direction.

      Pros

      - They pay you on time

      Cons

      - Overall bad communication from managers to employees - Have you ever wondered why a game lacks something basic? It's because the head of the studio "personally doesn't like it" - Were gaming dreams come to die - They think Solitaire is their biggest success (that's just sad) - I don't think I've ever felt more like a freelancer while being hired as a full time.

      Pros

      - Art team was great to work with, both colleages and leadership - I was able to join a company retreat at the time, and it was very pleasant - Annual bonuses

      Cons

      - Pacing can feel a bit on the slower end for some, but it didn't bother me personally - Room for growth felt a bit on the slow end as well, if one is looking to move up within the company it may feel somewhat limited
