Epic is a great place to work as there some very talented and passionate people there. They are a very family-oriented company and treat there employees to free lunches, activities etc.NC is a beautiful place to work and live, great for families. The UNREAL engine will always keep Epic well funded.
Svantaggi
Under all the hype and good news about Epic there is a layer not to many people know of. Many people on the art side have been there for a long time and with the success and sale of the "Gears of War" Franchise to Microsoft the environment for creative artist has been dismal. Ask your self other then "Gears" and "UT" and the slow developing "Fortnight" what has the core team really produced in the last 10 years? Infinity Blade? was developed by EPIC'S subsidiary ChAIR . The old Art management team are stuck in there ways. Any new talent should be prepared to deal with big egos and management that has not really produced anything of quality since the "Gears" franchise. Many of there top talented artist left the company because of the art management team, some were fired for trying to bring creative vision and breathe new life into an art environment that has grown stale. Unfortunately there really isn't any opportunity for creative growth and expression if your not an art manager. The moral on the art team was at an all time low when I was there, I hope things have changed.
