Pros

Some brilliant people work at EA, it's great to learn from them. There's a good level of responsibility, even when just starting out. There are good opportunities to take on new and challenging tasks.

Cons

Work-life balance is up to you to try to maintain. Some people will always work more. Be sure to guard your time. You have to be pretty proactive about career development and promotions, always pushing for official recognition (even though they do a good job of calling out good work that you've done).

Advice to Management

Take a stand and say something definitive, so that we can better align what we try to do daily with concrete goals and feel empowered enough to change things.
