Pros

Still fully remote, which gives you a great work-life balance. The salaries are competitive, and your colleagues are genuine game enthusiasts, which makes working together fun and engaging. There’s also full transparency about the company’s key KPIs and overall direction, so you always know what’s going on and how your work contributes to the bigger picture.

Cons

The main disadvantage is the lack of a clear long-term vision. I really admire the founders - they’ve managed to keep the company running for over 20 years, adapt to changing market conditions, pivot when needed, and stay successful in the gaming industry. However, along the way, it sometimes feels like the company jumps from one trend to another without a consistent long-term goal or product strategy. Another point to be aware of is the company’s strict approach to performance and project outcomes. They aren’t afraid to let people go if a project doesn’t meet business objectives or if an employee is underperforming. From a business standpoint, that’s understandable, but from an employee perspective, it’s something you should definitely be aware of and factor in before applying.
