Pros

Studio itself treats you well with great benefits, swag and food.

Cons

Middle management (Art Leads) are incredibly over bearing managing every tiny detail of your work. There is absolutely no room for creativity. This is a "do exactly what you are told" studio. People tend to disappear (get fired) for trying to buck that system.

Pros

I really loved my time at Epic. I know every department is different, but you really can't beat the work-life balance and benefits, including 2 weeks off in the summer and 2 weeks off in the winter AND unlimited PTO. It helps that I had an amazing manager - that makes or breaks anything. Most people are a pleasure to work with - I've only run into 1 or 2 bad apples in almost 2 years.

Cons

Not a lot of diversity at the C-Suite level.
