Pros

Interesting projects, talented team members. The work itself was engaging.

Cons

Systematic payment delays throughout my employment. After 3 years as Lead Game Designer, I was terminated with one day's notice — contradicting my contract terms. As of April 2026, the company still owes me $7,185. The COO confirmed the debt in writing but stated payments are "definitely not this month" with no timeline or repayment schedule provided. The issue has been "on pause" for 5+ months with no resolution.
