Pros

Some great people to work with. High-profile and ambitious games to work on. EA takes good care of its employees, offering good benefits and support during COVID.

Cons

Dreadful tech (Frostbite). Engineers routinely quit after a few months rather than work with it. It's common for employees to be sent to work on projects for other teams for several months at a time, making it difficult to be invested in the work.

Projects get cancelled left, right, and center, so don't go there expecting to work on anything specific.
