Pros

People in lower level roles were generally helpful.

Cons

Severe lack of transparency from upper management. Job security not guaranteed considering they laid off multiple departments with no advanced warning.

Pros

Working at Gametime means showing up as your full self — and being valued for it. I have the autonomy to own my work end-to-end, and a leadership team that genuinely welcomes candid dialogue. The people here are exceptionally kind, and the problems we solve are meaningful and energizing. What sets Gametime apart is the access to genuinely forward-thinking technology in an industry where that's rare — it makes the work feel exciting every single day.

Cons

As a growing company, some processes and systems are still being built out. If you're someone who needs everything fully defined and structured from day one, it can take some adjustment — but if you lean into it, that's also where the most interesting work lives.

Pros

- Remote first company - Employees that became like family over the years - Honestly nothing else

Cons

- Fire and hire culture. They are quick to assume that the problem with Gametime's growth is the people, so they are quick to fire whole teams or departments without understanding the underlying issues - You're expected to work more with less. While staff is dwindling, existing staff must pick up the pieces - Leadership and staff turnovers are huge; most of the executive team is traded out every year or so - Little promotions or raises , the expectation is you should be happy you're not fired or laid off. - Little psychological safety
