Electronic Arts reviews

The impending sale and going private is causing lots of uncertainty. The risk of future rounds of redundencies feel high.

Limited career development or skill-building opportunities for QA testers. Management provided minimal transparency about project timelines, priorities, or role expectations, making it difficult to understand how testing work contributed to larger goals. QA was rarely included in planning discussions or given context beyond task lists, creating a transactional work environment. Testers often treated as interchangeable resources rather than valued contributors. Office culture felt exclusionary at times, with informal networks forming primarily among certain groups, leaving others on the periphery. No structured mentorship, training, or advancement pathways for junior QA staff. Work became repetitive with little variation or opportunity to learn new testing approaches.
