Pros

many highly spirited and talented artists

Cons

No career path, no room to grow unless you belong to some in-club, that mostly consists of Finnish long time employees. This is also how all decisions are made - flat hierarchy is the buzzword of the hour and pretty much just a feel good lie. Management/ CEO/ owner are thoroughly disconnected from reality, Business outlook for the future is abysmal. There is no bonuses or tangible benefits. As the company is struggling money-wise and the projects are shipped late with horrendous overrunning costs, no profit is made. Looks like this will only get worse. High ambitions are wrought out of artists and developers with guilt, pressure and blame under the pretext of a promise of greatness. Reality is hundreds and hundreds of overtime hours due to broken processes, insanely juvenile leadership, a narcissistic self view of own infallibility and zero recognition or appreciation towards people carrying the weight of all those charades. While the last project received highest critical acclaim it has been shipped with dozens and dozens of (in part clinically) burned out, artists, developers and producers and unbearable toxic fallout, bullying and harassment across all - but especially the art departments. None of this is being talked about, nothing will change. The plan to work on 5 projects at the same time remains, people are worn out, sad, desperate and in disbelief at the laughable outlook on how any of this is supposed to be realized, while creative leadership indulges in self praise on breakfast television. If you want to work here, do not relocate to Finland. There is no local alternative, you will be trapped and forced to leave country again once you are burned out looking for an new job.

Pros

Cool offices. Cool games. Nice small perks (gym, lunch allowance, Finnish lessons, free soft drinks, outings). Good medical insurance.

Cons

Time and resource management issues. Non-natives at a disadvantage career wise, despite the company working in English.
