      Bullying brushed as inside jokes

      Pros

      * You get to work on projects known to the entire world * Free food, drinks, and snacks

      Cons

      * Sexist remarks from management every time there's an upcoming some kind of con asking if I'll be wearing something *sexy* this year; * Harassment from co-workers asking when you're going to reach a certain rank on the game you work as it would be a requirement to do your job well? Everyone brushes it off as a joke but when someone asks how long will it take you to reach it every second day and "jokingly" saying that employees who can't achieve certain rank shouldn't be working on them as they "don't" really understand the game.

      Your Quality of Life Depends on Your Team

      Pros

      Some of the smartest people I've ever worked with. It's nice you can just leave for the doctor or for a date whenever you want without needing to ask anyone. And best of all free food everywhere. Kombucha on tap!! Beer!! If you're on a good team, it's the best company in the world. When it's fun it's really really fun. Great parties.

      Cons

      Some of the most entitled people I've ever worked with and lots of people waste time playing games, but miss their deadlines. Terrible management in some teams, poor learning and development so those bosses never level up. Very low pay compared to the cost of living in Santa Monica. If you have college debt you're gonna be paycheck to paycheck. Everything depends on your team. God help you if you're stuck with one of the bad managers, you're career will be stonewalled forever. We reorg so often that I've known people who have had more managers than years they've been working here. We talk about accountability but few people are truly held accountable for anything from sexual harassment claims to product failures. Politics and backstabbing is getting depressingly high and people are leaving because managers let other people take credit for their direct report's work.

      It is probably exactly what you've heard about it

      Pros

      The people - fiercely passionate and mostly genuine. Although people complain about it, the comp and benefits package is ridiculous given the company's standing.

      Cons

      Processes are non-existent or broken in the name of non-conformity. Leaders aren't engaging with one another to build trust. Still a misnomer - Riot Game. The organization is attempting to find itself, perhaps 3 years too late.
