Great people, great products, but not as good compensation
The environment is fun, friendly, and inviting, which makes it a genuinely great place to work day to day. People tend to be open and honest, which provides a great place to learn and grow.
Due to being in the gaming industry and a big name, the compensation isn't as competitive. The turnaround time for things to go through management is also a challenge.
At the moment, it is not a place of pride to work there. There are significant changes looking to happen with everything going on, but it will most likely take too long for me to want to stick around.
