Pros

High profile clients, some projects are interesting. Nice for your resume.

Cons

Old school project management methodologies. You will be sitting in an empty office and collaborate only with freelancers or vendors working in different timezones. All talented people already left the company and everyone will do the same after few weeks of working there. The CEO is insane, behaving rude, arrogant and working with him is the most frustrating experience in the world. Do not believe the hype.

Hello again. This must be your 6th or 7th troll review? The same shallow content, questionable grammar and specifically going after the CEO (me). Fortunately our Sr UX employees have been with the company for quite some time and are doing amazing work. In-fact they are hiring in their departments and we encourage you to check http://www.fantasy.co/careers and read the reviews here on Glassdoor from current and real former UX employees. To those of you visiting our Glassdoor account, I and our employees have asked Glassdoor to remove the multiple reviews from this person (whom we know off). However the reviews although fabricated, technically meet the sites policy and requirements. I am proud to say we have amazing and perhaps the most talented people at Fantasy since 1999.

Pros

Fantasy has a strong client list and consistently exciting projects. You’re surrounded by talented designers, which pushes you to grow and experiment constantly. The salary is very competitive, and it’s a great place for young, ambitious creatives who want to accelerate fast. CEO is very supportive.

Cons

The competitive atmosphere can be intense and sometimes draining. Many projects remain in concept phase and never see the light of day, which can feel frustrating. Probably not the best fit for senior designers looking for a stable, lean-back work environment.
