Pros

There is a week of paid training. The hours are steady, and there can be a lot of optional overtime. The environment is fun and casual, but remains productive and goal-oriented. The sky is the limit, from basic contractor work all the way to being employed by EA directly.

Cons

Most start as contract work through a separate entity that works with EA. This management will sometimes force people onto a three-month furlough, depending on what time of the year their contract is to end.

Advice to Management

There is a serious break between the testing center in Baton Rouge and the development group in Tiburon.
