Vantaggi

- Great experienced people. You'll work with the smartest folks around. - Explosive company growth - Great (new!) office in SF

Svantaggi

- No work/life balance. none. - We have a Google culture, we don't have a player-first culture. We're a gaming company where no one plays our games. - We have some of the smartest engineers, we're limited on eng resources, but yet we fail to properly execute on nearly all major features. It's a shame to see great talent go to waste. - Transparency is surprisingly large problem for such a small and young company. This is beyond just the issue with cross-functional communication. Any basic information on how the company is doing is off limits. This has turned the OKR meetings into backbending obscuring exercise; we literally have slides at these meetings that say something like "10% over our goal of X." I never thought I would say Google was more transparent. - Top-down management.

Vantaggi

Truly one of the best companies I have worked for! There is a genuine care for our people, our culture and DEI. There has been a lot of change over the past few years, but our commitment to our mission, our people and our players has remained constant. We have a solid core leadership team and although the integration into Scopely has been a journey, who we are remains true and is showing up in everything we do. Honored to work here - best job of my professional career.

Svantaggi

RTO and some recent changes in benefits through the Scopely acquisition

Vantaggi

Niantic has a unique mission and works on products that blend technology, gaming, community, and real-world exploration. The people are generally smart, passionate, and collaborative, and there are opportunities to work on creative projects with global impact. The company also offers a good learning environment for those interested in gaming, AR, live operations, and location-based products.

Svantaggi

Priorities can shift frequently, which sometimes makes it difficult for teams to stay focused or understand how their work connects to the broader company strategy. Communication from leadership could be clearer, especially during periods of change. Some processes feel reactive rather than proactive, and cross-functional alignment can vary depending on the team.
