Pros

you can work in video game's industry... (I do my best to find a pro)

Cons

The tool architecture is awful which lead to poor performances for the users and it is a nightmare for the devs to improve this situation. The company seems to hate using standard tools and prefer to reinvent the wheel and do it poorly. So a simple task takes too many time. The worst is that many people working there for years are accustomed to this awful situation so they don't understand the need to improve this. Working there was definitely one of my worst experience in my career.

Pros

Remote work, free games. Good co-workers.

Cons

Horrendous pay, expectations of work absolutely unreasonable. Turnover rate pretty high, and instead of hiring new employees, just had the remaining team take over the work that required like 10+ employees. Then after requiring 200% productivity to make up for the lack of a team, complained about teams.
