Great Amenities, Stifling Creativity
Great Amenities, Stifling Creativity
Cheap games, free food, basketball court, soccer field, gym – tons of amenities. If you like making video games, you might enjoy this place.
If you're creative, you might hate this place. It's a huge company, and so there is very little opportunity for the typical employee to have a say in the vision or direction of anything important.
Innovate on a small scale. Try sending your developers off to make a few smaller, "indie"-type games and see what happens.

A first screening with the recruiter to talk about the position. An interview with the software engineering lead, and then three more rounds of interviews. One of them was "culture add" and then two technical interviews, which were pretty similar.
