Pros

Great projects, AMAZING people. Everyone there is a genuine friend. Anti-crunch, anti-micro management. Constant growth, learning, teaching. NO egos. Microsoft oversight is positive and guarantees longevity

Cons

Only con after 3.5 years is that sometimes high level execs might "hand of god" their way down into a particular topic and force some redos. But it's always better as a result. HIGHLY infrequent occurence, though.

Pros

You will work with some great and talented people. Egos are checked at the door, and devs conduct themselves with compassion and humility. Pay is very good for a smaller studio, beating out that of some higher profile studios. Studio leadership treats you like a human being, not a cog in the machine. This is inXile's greatest strength.

Cons

Not enough research and development time leads to building the plane while flying it.

Embrace the Chaos, Then Run

Pros

Great stepping stone for your next role or breaking in to the industry. 100% work from home. Improved benefits and vacation. They are generous with the holiday party and holiday time off, but bring earplugs. The music is so loud people flee for the safety of their hearing.

Cons

This is not a Microsoft company. They are limited integration so they do not have to uphold any kind of Microsoft standard for a healthy or safe work place. There is very little diversity here. Upper management has never worked at a AAA company and it shows. Constantly moving goal posts and intentionally creating chaos because it makes people work harder and give a better product is a manipulative and dishonest way to run a company. You rarely feel successful. You just feel run down. People are disposable and undervalued, especially production. Producers here are run ragged, right into the ground.
