Vantaggi

Fun and generally friendly. Willing to take on people relatively new to the games industry. Can be a good stepping stone to better jobs at better employers. Get experience and get out.

Svantaggi

Poor pay Relied on people new to the industry and desperate for games jobs being willing to accept low wages. This has the impact of a low experience team being loosely held together by a couple of longer-standing employees but this puts a huge amount of pressure on senior staff. Raises were virtually unheard of and only happened when people would threaten to leave. Management did not listen to even senior employees and provided little support or attempts to engage with staff on issues. Unpaid overtime was common, expected and attempts by employees to have this addressed were brushed off. Project results were poor even on bigger IPs - work for hire is the only way this company stays afloat but hasn't produced a single noteworthy success in it's entire history. Recent history of layoffs, unpaid wages, lack of raises, lack of professional development resulted in many good (and previously very loyal) employees leaving. You will not make any kind of name for yourself working here and your work will not be particularly appreciated.

While I can appreciate people have very different points of view about the studio and the products they have worked on, especially after they leave, however there are basic untruths within this statement that are disappointing to read, especially the unpaid wages. I always appreciate those with issues within the studio to raise them. Doors are always open for discussions and we are not a studio that thinks we are the finished article. We are all always striving to be better. I hope this individual whomever they may be goes on to find the development environment that suits them and they have all the success in the future.

Vantaggi

Very good company, treat very well their employee and the management is most likely the best and most human management I've had in my career. I've left at the time Scopely bought it so I don't know if it had an impact on it.

Svantaggi

Project are not really the most interesting, especially due to being paired to Scopely.
