Flexible work day Respect of work/life balance Colleagues who are super nice and the ambiance is too The work equipments and benefits are worth it Free access to every new Microsoft and Activision game released The work events that are usually well organised and fun Free in-office snacks The pay which is reasonable

Since the Microsoft acquisition, benefits are being gradually stripped away from the employees.

Seems to be allergic to releasing new games.

A lot of meetings.

Gross booking is the only cared-about metric, which makes sense, but it is supposed to be an entertainment company, so maybe how much the players like the game should be thought of too.

"Make the world playful" is cringe from the inside.

Think for longer than 2 months. You focus too much on short term decisions, and the games are stuck in a loop of "Let's focus on thing A! Oh, we don't win enough money. Let's try thing B! Oh, not enough money again. Let's try thing A but with minimal changes! Oh, not enough money again. Let's try thing B!"
