Great company for full-time employees, not so great for contractors
- Tight development team gets things done on a hurried schedule.
- Full-time employees get good perks, especially if located at headquarters.
- Creative minds on the development team lead to a quality product, when given the resources and time.
- PR & Marketing dominate the development cycle, leading to games being released before they are necessarily ready for the masses.
- Contracted employees are excluded from most perks.
- Massive overtime is required well before "crunch time," leading to work/life balance issues.

The interview process was overall pleasant. It seems like I was with a recruiter rather than someone from the actual company, so some questions asked they were unable to answer. I would apply again in the future at this company.
