      Pros

      -While I was there, there were many talented people that I was proud to work with. -Good location, right next to the beach. -Pay was pretty good for the industry.

      Cons

      -Company had a hiring frenzy, by placing more cooks in the kitchen and crossed their fingers. -You have to pick up slack of other people. -Very visual game company, gameplay second or third. -No backend, and management doesn't understand technology and limitations. -Laid off everyone that was competent, and left behind the muses. -No one left to make games, only management.

      Pros

      Pay is generally higher than surrounding studios

      Cons

      "Upside down cake" studio. Higher ups have no clue why things are failing. They refuse to talk to their own workers to acknowledge and fix their problems.

      Good work environment, poorly organized

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Very positive atmosphere, great location, producers are encouraged to get feedback on design choices from everyone. Willing to promote from within, which is rare for the industry. This is not a good place if you're looking long-term, but as a 1-2 year position, it's worth it.

      Cons

      Disorganized in how they execute their projects. Very large communication gap between upper management and the engineers/artists, which sometimes translated into offhanded comments turning into week-long or even month-long blind alleys distracting important team members from the primary project. There was also a philosophical clash between the Leads' expectations of team members and HRs' expectations of team members which could result in a pat on the back from a Lead turning into a negative review from management.
