      Pros

      -Free snacks -Open PTO -Nice campus -Advanced screening of movies -Play as many games of League you want during the day

      Cons

      -Poor leadership -No real challenges -Limited product line creating inability to deliver truly scalable solutions - Again, bad leadership -The company cares more about screening for the willingness to become a cult member than they do about hiring people that can get the job done. -No vision -Recruiting sucks (but that's because management tells them to suck) -They have an F rating with the BBB. None of their competitors are below a B+

      Seeds of failure sewn already

      Pros

      A billion dollar company that spoils its employees and gives a tremendous amount of freedom and Trust

      Cons

      With freedom and Trust comes laziness and it seems like most employees are content playing games and eating snacks without really delivering anything. My team was unwilling to work beyondcore hours and never actually produced anything and constantly pushing deadlines. Toxic personalities in leadership blame all the wrong people and I watched as my team got angrier and angrier and there was no Direction or desire to complete from the production side despite the team comprised of the most talented and dedicated artists in the industry.

      Long slow death of a thousand cuts by selfish senior management

      Pros

      Riot has tons of passionate coworkers and very smart people to learn from during your time there. Use your energy well and build a network you can poach from later.

      Cons

      It doesn't really matter if you are effective or not. Your career progression and compensation won't correlate. Plenty of places for lazy people to hide and not do work, so why kill yourself when someone else will end up with the credit anyway? Lots of talking heads. Culture has been more or less destroyed by a certain individual.
