Junior Web Developer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
Had two interviews. Both went pretty well.
The first was a basic screening, and the second was a more in-depth interview where I was asked about my experience with the specific tools of the job by the person who the position would work directly with.
After not hearing back for a week, I followed up via email. No response.
I chalked it up to it being the holidays, etc., but a month later, and with the job listing no longer on the site, the company obviously ghosted me with no rejection whatsoever. Pretty unprofessional.
In hindsight, I should have checked this page to see that the company is notorious for not giving any feedback to candidates.

Take-Two Interactive Work Experiences
- 3.0Steady Work, Weak Remote CultureUnity Engineer • Former EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesSeptember 8, 2025Pros: Good hours, steady projects, but many projects are also mature and so stagnant for new skill development.Cons: Weak remote culture. It really relies on being in person, and morale can suffer for it.
- 5.0Smart Team, Great Office, Low PaySoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesFebruary 13, 2025Pros: Very smart people, great infrastructure, cool perks, and an office.Cons: Pay could be higher for engineering roles.
- 5.0Great Company - Bad HR DepartmentEngineer • Former EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesJuly 29, 2023Pros: Working with great people, and working with the latest technology, pushing the limits of the industry. In engineering, you actually get proper tools, including properly specced computers, to get your work done properly. Not to mention, if you have an issue, the technology team is there to actually help you and work with you. The CEO & executive team understand the business very well and are great leaders. They are not afraid to stick up for social issues when it matters or make big bets when necessary.Cons: The video game business requires crunch and for you to work hard. However, it has gotten a lot better over the years. Avoid the HR department at all costs! The department is the Achilles' heel of the company and needs an overhaul. They have single-handedly driven multiple people to leave the team (including me!) for various reasons. This includes gaslighting, poor talent management, and even working against company interests, like causing great candidates to reject offers due to bad process and communication.
