      As a QA test, a good summer-time job for a high schooler and nothing more.

      Pros

      Good people, as you will be working alongside other gamers. You have opportunities to take leadership roles and feel that your contributions to the project are making an effect.

      Cons

      Low pay and almost zero upward mobility. The QA department is literally and figuratively separated from the rest of the company. You will not be able to interact or shadow technical, art, or production seniors and learn how to contribute more to the company. The test style is also antiquated, so staying with the company may prevent you from being marketable elsewhere. Expect large amounts of overtime and a seasonal hiring environment.

      Pros

      Great chance to learn. Fun, young work environment. Good people to work with.

      Cons

      Not much career growth, unless you're in programming. For studio finance, it's one of those jobs that you'll have for a long time.
