Pros

Had a great culture and anot awesome group of coworkers before WMS was bought out by Sci games. Decent pay for what you do. Good perks

Cons

The industry as a whole is going downhill. It's time for Sci games to reinvent itself and not be just in the gaming domain with casino. It needs to explore other avenues.

Pros

Good benefits typical of a large international company. Great offices, great showrooms, and potential for international travel. Good set of products and well placed within the market to succeed. Above average pay. Recruits employees from a wide variety of backgrounds.

Cons

Significant and recurring underlying problems on the technology side seemingly from multiple studios. Company has come very far very fast, leaving some senior staff in positions they cannot handle now its a large international company. Job security may be a question after several mergers/acquisions led to large rounds of redundancies in some divisions. Some studios not pulling their weight resulting in a complex blame-game. Tons of politics at all levels, even some stories of impropriety.
