Pros

You can work on parts of AAA titles.

Cons

Poor pay, junior leadership, no support or collaboration. Left my 401k in a dead account and didn’t answer 2 emails and a call for support. I took a 20k cut to work there and earn 20k more leaving. Lots of great people, but really poor support. Didn’t like hearing leadership talk poorly of contractor’s employees either. It just wasn’t a good experience for me overall.

Pros

Agency Work life balance Decent pay A few very talented peers that tried their best to support the company

Cons

Poor business management No growth since gearbox acquisition Ruined relationships with companies they contracted with due to poor talent placement Leadership played favorites, and kept around expensive talent that didn't have the experience to support projects they were placed in Lots of above individual contributor pay grade people that just sat around collecting a paycheck Senior leadership pumped the company full of new hires and projects when borrowing was cheap, without the infrastructure to succeeded on them. Then sold out to embracer group and retired shortly after failing due to mismanagement of funds and hiring. Business development was unable to secure meaningful work for the last 3+ years
