Pros

Money was very good. Studio GMs and their Dev Teams are great but hamstrung by central leadership

Cons

Very poor communication. Terrible management. Execs have no clue what they are doing. Change strategies monthly and don't explain anything. No one is safe from being laid off and when it happens, it is at the whim of the CEO. Ex bungie employees get preferential treatment from CEO. Nepotism is obvious. QA is put in an impossible position to deliver a 20 year old strategy by someone who thinks they know QA but do not. No remote or hybrid work allowed with anger at even suggesting it. Office politics between leaders and teams run rampant Look at the crap game Concord to see what the culture can deliver as Firewalk was a PM studio.

Pros

Pay was good, great benefits, they assembled a number of really great teams that had a ton of passion. Received a sign on bonus and severance.

Cons

From the director level up, management was confused on direction and was terrible at prioritizing. One example is having my bonus tied to the number of people that could be hired in a year at a company level despite being an engineer. Games that showed no promise were scaled up at the wrong time and those that did show promise were abandoned. They laid off almost everyone in Bellevue and then opened roles in Texas too which is a super classy move.
