      Pros

      Was an exciting time with plenty of opportunities. Lots of new deals and some great people to work with some of the time

      Cons

      Was a bit bureaucratic with mixed leadership. When things started to go wrong plenty of people were let go or left.

      Collaborative work environment in a fun category

      Pros

      People I worked with were great - solid team dynamics and good information sharing across your peers. Exciting, ever-changing category to work in.

      Cons

      Senior management has too much of their hands in the development at times. I found us debating too much fine detail of the games in our senior management reviews, rather than keeping things at a strategic level.

      QA Experience Is Average

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Experienced QA management - Talented testing teams who are eager to share knowledge - Trained QA rules that ensured limited bug duplication and high quality bug writing - Pay is equal to industry average (neither pro or con) - Free drinks and sometimes free food (with OT) - Very strict break schedules

      Cons

      - Outsourced a lot of QA jobs - Working conditions were dirty (this was when QA was in the basement of the Santa Monica office, has since moved to a new office space) - Difficult to move up - Limited computers that hindered efficient bugging practices - Felt like a competition with other testers
