There is an unbelievable amount of talented and creative people at EA. Great benefits. Loads of fun building cool games that millions of people all over the world enjoy. The people who voted EA "worst company in America" should move out of their mom's basement. :)
I mean, really... we beat out Bank of America and any number of oil companies!
Silos within the company mean wasted resources due to solving the same problems over and over and over. Poor management and leadership exist at all levels. Poor work/life balance occurs at times due to poor project/time management failure. There is middle management bloat.
Break down the silos to facilitate communication and learning among the studios.
Give all employees an opportunity to have their voice heard.
