Process
I had a tech interview with the hiring manager and was then called in for an onsite. The onsite experience was a disaster. There were 8 interviews, and one of the interviewers did not show up on time. As a result, I ended up giving a 4-on-1 interview, and all interviewers had different questions.

Great benefits, but the work environment is toxic
Software Engineer II • Former Employee
Orlando, Florida, United States
October 23, 2008
Pros: Salaries are quite good for the game industry, and benefits are some of the best amongst engineering jobs anywhere.
Cons: Excessive layers of management. Management lies to you about job performance. Promotions are not given for merit, rather on how friendly you are with the jocks there (the production team). It's just like high school.
Furthermore, their recruiters are some of the most unprofessional and rude people I've dealt with in my career.
