Pros: From a technologist's standpoint and as a former Yahoo, where the people made the company, I can only say nice things about Riot Games. The people, the people, the people. Everyone hired there is cream-of-the-crop, and because of this, you learn, and learn, and learn, and become better at what you do. The leadership structure allows those they hire to dictate where and what they should focus on, something completely awesome if you're into technology. But, of course, to have reasons why something should be a certain way and follow through with it. The 'why' is what makes this place great. They challenge your ideas, and at the end of the challenge, you come out with a very solid, focused roadmap to help the players of LoL.

Cons: 1. Long hours, but they go by really, really fast. 2. While I was there, they put in a Starbucks coffee machine. It takes forever, and a line starts to form. Spark up a conversation with the person next to you, and it'll go by faster. 3. Lunchtime eateries are not so healthy, but with an onsite gym, you can't complain. Lol. 4. No real cons to be honest.

Pros: The company is fun to work for if you enjoy gaming.

Cons: It has many of the same struggles that many other companies have when growing to an enterprise level.

Pros: Riot has attracted some amazing talent. By far the best engineering team I have worked with. The company is very focused on the players. The company is very employee growth-focused as well. Flexible work schedule.

Cons: Not many downsides in my opinion. The company has grown considerably, so it does not have the start-up feel it once did. There's a lack of a widespread bonus plan.
