      Pros

      Fun to make video games, can do some cool things if you're on the right licenses, most of the people are cool and good to work with.

      Cons

      70-80 hours/week consistently, no budgets, it's not about quality but rather how quickly and cheaply you can get something done.

      Pros

      Love to work within gaming, office is nice, and analytics function is strong. Company events are a plus, as are perks for games and Microsoft items.

      Cons

      Annual layoffs, can usually expect 1,000 or more people let go across XGS with a hundred or so from Activision. Work-life balance could be better, and compensation is squarely median or a bit lower for the industry.
