Pros

- Great Coworkers - Opportunity to move up in the company - Work hands on in the video game industry for some good experience

Cons

- Terrible Communication, zero to no transparency - Hypocrisy, They talk a lot about appreciating workers, but then do everything they can to make their lives harder - Management does not care about workers under them (Lots of brown nosing) - Can be moved from project to project with little to no heads up - Told we have a say in things, but when giving legit critics and advice nothings is ever actually done with it or about it

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.
