      Pros

      - Very skilled and dedicated team members - Good work/life balance practices, reasonable hours - Great location

      Cons

      - Overcontrolling upper management with serious delegation issues: "leads" are given little to no real responsibility, all decisions must be ratified by directors - The 3 directors want to sit in on and approve every major meeting for new projects, severely slowing development as their availability bottlenecks everything - Project management tools are Excel and a 10-year-old version of JIRA - Predictable cons of any small company: limited advancement, somewhat gerryrigged infrastructure

      Pros

      - They pay you on time

      Cons

      - Overall bad communication from managers to employees - Have you ever wondered why a game lacks something basic? It's because the head of the studio "personally doesn't like it" - Were gaming dreams come to die - They think Solitaire is their biggest success (that's just sad) - I don't think I've ever felt more like a freelancer while being hired as a full time.

      Pros

      - Art team was great to work with, both colleages and leadership - I was able to join a company retreat at the time, and it was very pleasant - Annual bonuses

      Cons

      - Pacing can feel a bit on the slower end for some, but it didn't bother me personally - Room for growth felt a bit on the slow end as well, if one is looking to move up within the company it may feel somewhat limited
