Pros

Culture, playing games, unlimited PTO, people you work with are all driven and smart, benefits (health insurance, fitness stipend, gaming stipend), summer and winter break

Cons

Need to consistently provide value to be valued, unlimited PTO - while great can lead to people not taking PTO and won't get paid out for accrued PTO when leave, ambiguity can be difficult for some people to navigate, previous CEO and culture did not have accountability to cost

Pros

Good pay, medical benefits, bonuses. If you like working on campus the food situation is out of control with a free cafeteria, fully stocked break rooms, coffee shop, and smoothie bar. There is also an arcade to play in if you ever get a minute to do that kind of thing.

Cons

Has become more of a corporation with a clear objective to maximize the appearance of profits at the expense of the artists with layoffs under the guise of corporate responsibility. The original vision of being the most player focused game company feels a bit lost in the new environment. Big bets are now met with big layoffs of people who didn't make the big bet to begin with while those in senior leadership who make the big bets are free to make bigger bets in the future with other peoples careers.
