Pros

Gym, location, free nuts and candy. Unfettered access to whatever match 3 game you’re working on.

Cons

I arrived at King with 16 years experience but got treated like a junior. Overruled and belittled by a team that saw my criticism of how we run things as a reason to take me down, not as desire to improve things. The company operates like a weak facsimile of a FAMGA company (where I now work). It was horrible to observe the insidious culture of bullying and embarrassing to see the managers playing politics against each other. One of their values is ‘fun and friendly’. That simply isn’t true. And the pedantic interpretation of agile is absolutely insane.
