Pros

One of the best studios I've worked for. The management team seem very level-headed and seem to consistently make pragmatic, people-focused decisions. General culture is great, staff are lovely people. Very inclusive vibe, socially aware. I'm very happy here.

Cons

We're still in the process of working out our processes, but folks are very actively involved in making it easier to do good work.

Pros

- Very friend devs, you won't feel alone here - Great "family fun" projects with a lot of style and heart - Decent number of entry-level position, good way to get some professional experience

Cons

- Management is just as top-down as AAA studio. Not quite what I had hoped for when you're on a project with ~ 10 people - Poor planning causing unnecessary stress, both within individual projects and across projects - Devs not having much influence on what projects get brought on, scope or timeline - Little agency in day-to-day work - Poor pay ... but the low cost-of living in the North East kinda makes up for it
