Never listened to and never treated with respect - Anonymous employee Supermassive Games Employee Review

Higher ups never take into account your advice or experience. Proper processes and best practices are ignored because head strong people refuse to listen and think they know best. The us vs them culture that has been around in the company for many years and needs to be sorted, you can't just look the other way and pretend it's not happening. The discipline I worked within was barely treated as a discipline despite being one of the most important component of game development. Short on staff in our department yet other departments had 3 or 4 new staff every week. Continuous improvement meetings are held occasionally but anything raised is never really improved or acknowledged. A new one to one system was introduced and goals for myself were set and achieved yet I was still treated as inept and my problems were swept under the rug. I was a contract employee and when I originally joined I was told there was a possibility to made permanent, fast forward a year later and I was told ( not directly ) that I would never be made permanent.
