Great family company (if you drink the koolaid)
Pros
The people/perks are awesome and the main reason so many people stay with the company for as long as they do. Amount of vacation time & half day Friday's are great if you aren't to insanely busy trying with crazy workload and can enjoy. There are free toy piles around the office & 1/2 price Hasbro store in Pawtucket.
Cons
Some people can be super frustrating but they have been with the company for too long to be sacked (sometimes they know this). There are some questionable members in management that should not be leading other people. Very political & hierarchy driven that it makes communication down the ladder unbearably slow to non-existent Marketing has a lot of control over design with little-to-no insights other than the test sessions with local Pawtucket kids that had an adverse opinion (even though all other research shows otherwise). Work can constantly churn if Marketing doesn't personally agree with something or are stuck on outdated stereotypes. Most of the fun design work is out sourced & projects are managed internally to hit deadlines for sales and marketing meetings more than actual production.
