Pros

Decent pay, worked with great artists and had an awesome supervisor

Cons

Unethical company at the top. The final straw was the multiple sexual harassment lawsuits that seemed to make no difference in the eyes of the execs. Expectations in terms of deadlines were frustrating and working on the same title (COD) constantly was so brain-numbing after a while.

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.
