Pros

Riot Games is a company that values its culture a lot and puts enormous effects living up to it. The company strategies are also communicated clearly to everyone so even there is no hierarchy, no clear internal processes and policies, rioters can make decisions indecently.

Cons

Given flexible working hour and vocation days, most of the rioters here work (and play games) really hard so the experiences are in general very intense. Also it is an environment made for self-starters, so a lay-back person won't be able to go far or win any acknowledgements. There is much peer pressure on self-development.

Pros

* Freedom to make decisions within your scope of responsibility * Being in a culture that is focused on the player and the employee. Everyone talks the talk, but Riot walks the walk. * Open feedback culture

Cons

* Working with what you love, and surrounded by people passionate about their work means you will find yourself sacrificing a healthy work/life balance

Pros

- Culture & Values: is a company run by gamers and we base every decision thinking "what I would want from a company in this case?" - Passion: again, being gamers is almost everybody's dream to work for a gaming company. But also everyone is passionate about their area of expertise. - Empowerment: you are encouraged to do what you think is good for the players. No long approval process, no useless discussion... No HQ vs local office... we are raw in the same direction. - Learning & Development: you don't get to where Riot is today without great people. Every day I learn something new from them! - Working on the best game in the world: this is probably bias because I've been playing / loving LOL since Season 1 but helping Riot making LOL even better is a honour for me. - Opportunities: I started in the EU office and for personal reason I couldn't work there any more and I was offered the opportunity to work in the Australian office. - Perks: Don't want to list them all but some of the cool one are: game allowance, breakfast and lunches, flexible hours and very competitive salaries.

Cons

Nothing I can think of, as said, I feel like I'm still in my honeymoon phase.
