Pros

Great compensation and benefits. Great traveling and T&E policy. Lots of opportunities internally for promotions or relocation.

Cons

EA is too focused on profits sometimes and teams aren't really allowed to "fail", if your game doesn't meet revenue target then there's a high chance it will be killed

Compensation for work is fair and large scale layoffs have been infrequent during my time

Cons

The cultural stigma that is associated with the company due to previous and certain c-suite decisions. Additionally, the development cycles to release titles year over year can become difficult to manage with tech debt produced from previous cycles.
