Amazing people, serious issue with pay
Amazing people, serious issue with pay
Amazing culture, smart people. Very relaxed and casual.
The pay is really low, and this is coming from a Software Engineer. I am so passionate about Blizzard and video games, but the salary is at the point where I'm not going to sacrifice my livelihood for my passion. The salaries are seriously lagging the market. One can only hope that Blizzard sees these reviews.
Your best and most passionate software engineers are no longer going to take a below-market salary just because they love Blizzard.
Maybe one to two years ago the salaries were okay, but not anymore.

Blizzard Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
There was first an interview with the recruiter, then one with the manager. Then, I had to pass a HackerRank test, followed by a technical interview with the team in C++. Finally, there was an interview with the PM and director. Gaming experience no
Software Engineer
The process for me went like this: 1. Recruiter Call 2. Hiring Manager Call 3. Take Home HackerRank 4. 3 Panel Interviews back to back (1 hour each with a 30 minute break) A. Interview reviewing the HackerRank questions B. Subject Matter
Software Engineer
Went through like eight interviews, just to be told they already went with someone else. The recruiter was amazing, but the actual interviews themselves didn't seem interested or care, even if you do and show your willingness to be taught.
