Pros

Location, able to casually dress

Cons

Brutal hours, the upper management doesn't trust anyone to get the job done so they micromanage every aspect of the game design from concept to release, the CEO loves to use profane language. Also, don't you think it's strange how most of the reviews for ZigzaGame on this site have a rating of either one star or five? The one-star reviews are totally warranted due to the horrific work environment, but the five-star reviews are ALL intentionally planted by the founding members in order to pad the overall rating. I have witnessed the CEO/CTO asking upper management to pad the reviews in this way. DO NOT BELIEVE THE LIES. This company is one of the worst out there and I strongly advise everyone to stay clear unless they want to lapse into depression or develop psychosomatic syndrome.

Pros

Friendly people. Communication was good despite time difference. (Most of the team in Japan)

Cons

More of a situational con: Large time zone differences did require patience for responses to inquiries.

Pros

Talented coworkers. Management is English-speaking; good if your Japanese is lacking.

Cons

The rest is all cons. They're bleeding talent like mad because they mistreat their employees, expect them to work unreasonable hours, and don't care about anything but lining their own pockets at the end of the day. I'm also pretty sure a lot of what they do is, if not downright illegal, then at the very least extremely shady. Falsely advertising your game as a Pokemon-like horror RPG/otome game/dating sim when it's your run-of-the-mill gacha game? Putting pornographic content into a T-rated game? Lying about the upcoming content of the game to pacify players who are thinking of quitting? We have to deal with a lot of hate from a playerbase that is understandably angry, and they don't care one bit. I started off with pride in what I did, and they successfully eroded that entirely. Don't work for these people unless conning unsuspecting players for a man who can't go two sentences without swearing is your idea of a good time.
