      Pros

      - Great People - Fun work environment - Work on awesome games - Looks great on resume/portfolio

      Cons

      - Pay is not competitive - You may do the job of 2-3 people - Company uses an agency called Volt in order to avoid giving you things like benefits, bonus, vacation time, etc. Took me several years to go from hired contractor to full time employee, even though I was doing the same work full time employees were doing. - If you're not on the Call of Duty team your career opportunities will be incredibly limited.

      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.
