Pros: - Working on games is fun - Free food of unlimited quantities - Flexible working hours

Cons: - Promotions are rare, raises even rarer. - Leadership is going downhill, with lots of big tech implants who know nothing about games and love the PIP machine. - It's getting real political with lots of turnover.

Pros: At Riot, even as an intern, you are treated like a full-time Rioter, with all the responsibility, respect, and of course the perks of working at a game company. Riot has an excellent player-focused culture with tons of room for growth. It was great to be working alongside other passionate and driven individuals, like myself, to help deliver an amazing product to people all over the world.

Cons: The work can be tough, but that is what makes growth possible! Definitely worth it.

Pros: Riot Games is a company of gamers, in some shape or form, whose focus and motivation comes from giving the best to its players. It's hard to find an environment that is both relaxed yet challenging. Team members value and aid in the growth of other team members. I have seen my ability to work and function with a team improve tremendously, and the projects I contributed to reach more people than I could have even imagined. There is so much freedom to explore and contribute to anything and everything. People are always willing to help, even if it's just to have lunch and talk about personal growth. Riot is truly a unique working environment and a company that holds true to having a player-first mindset.

Cons: There are a few issues with cross-team collaboration. Riot does a good job of moving people around physically to accommodate cross-team efforts, but when it comes to the little things, like getting access to anything, it can often turn into a hassle. I have found it's much better to simply get up and find the individual instead of sending emails.
