Unhealthy Leadership Dynamics - Techincal Lead Ayelet Studio Employee Review

If your goal is to study workplace politics more than actual game development, this studio offers plenty of material.

Internal politics, favoritism, and exclusionary communication overshadow actual game development. Experienced developers are often ignored, feedback is discouraged, and unrealistic deadlines lead to constant crunch, including weekends and holidays. The environment feels more focused on hierarchy and internal dynamics than on building strong games through collaboration, planning, and production discipline.

Most of the employees are sane and actually know what they are doing.

The employers and higher ups doesn't have knowledge of things and have ego's bigger than their ambitions.
