Pros

Cool company outings, food delivery, moving assistance, playtest mornings, fun dance party bathrooms

Cons

Testers are severely under valued due to the demand for these positions, company mentorship for leads to find their strengths and put them in the right position is lacking Instead of having coaching was basically let go because of one error that leaked through, manager was lacking management skills cause company grew too fast at the time Pay was absolutely disgusting. Took a pay cut with 3 years experience to move to LA to try this out, couldn't stand working 10+ hours a day and getting paid peanuts. You can make more than double this in any other industry

Player focus, some of the coolest games on the planet, Riot does a great job of creating an environment where people can succeed and thrive

Crunch is on the rise, fiscal discipline on exploration is still too loose, lots of layers of management
