Pros
Perks. CEO is a good guy.
Cons
CEO has lost control of the company. Epic has suffered as it has grown. The upper level management are far too corporate and don't understand the video games business well. There is no loyalty within the company, employees are made to feel worthless as they watch their friends be laid off when things don't go well (not always their fault). For example: manager asks employee to predict how long a task will take. Employee predicts. 2 days before delivery, the manager tells the employee that the task has changed completely and needs to be restarted - but delivered in 2 days. Employee says this is impossible. Management don't care - there's a milestone coming! Employee fails to deliver on time. This repeats for the next 2 tasks. Despite 5 years of excellent work and amazing performance reviews, the employee is brought into a meeting and encouraged to leave. Not fired, not redundant, the employee needs to sign a legal letter to say that he/she won't sue the company at a later date and, in exchange, the company will make some small payoff to recompense the employee so that they can afford to pay their mortgage and not end up homeless. It is also very clear that Epic will fail as an international business. ALL management is within the US HQ. Non-US employees are treat as second class citizens. US management will "give the talk", telling those employees that they are valued, but they really aren't. The vision of the company is completely disjoint now, too. With fierce competition from other games engines, Epic have invested a lot of time in Unreal Engine. But it doesn't bring income for the company. The games under development are flailing around, trying to be unique, but ultimately failing as well. Losing key designers badly hurt the company.
