Pros

This whole job was a scam.

Cons

I was hired along with countless others as an "experiment." We were led to believe this was a career opportunity to work on an awesome mobile game. In reality, they were trying to see if they could make development work across two dev teams, one in China and one in the States. When presented with a system I designed to streamline their development process, they ignored it. The producers knew better, but now they are literally rebuilding the same system I built, after they fired the entire dev team and moved dev to China.

If I, as well as others, knew this was all an experiment, we would have never left our nice jobs for this garbage one. Riot lied. Riot doesn't care about you or your family. They only care about money, period. Don't let any Riot employee tell you different.

Scumbags.

Advice to Management

Fire anyone in management/production stateside that managed Wild Rift. They are idiots. They literally ignored a solution that would have saved countless jobs. Trash managers deserve to be put in the trash.
