Pros

Chance to work on some top class video games and work with some very very smart people. Very good benefits and pay is pretty good .

Cons

Terrible work hours. Work to life balance goes awry very fast and stays that way for long. Lot of bad people who seem to be in charge of making decisions. Time management and scoping go wrong most of the time.
