Blizzard Entertainment Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

It's on the high-side of normal.

Review from Engineering Dept

The profit sharing is very good.

Health benefits reasonable - including incentives to stay healthy.

Fit-bit intensives are great, all my glasses were paid with the health intensive. (this combined with the discount we get)

Review from Customer Support Dept

Medical coverage, with a chronic illness this is key.

Review from Customer Support Dept

I would like to see equity options opened to lower levels of leadership.

Review from Customer Support Dept

The profit sharing is nice

Review from Engineering Dept

I pinch myself everyday that I get to earn what I earn. Bonuses are very motivating, as well.

Review from HR Dept

Take home pay is on the lower end of expected pay for my position however with profit sharing, tuition reimbursement and quality benefits, it's not too bad.

Review from Customer Support Dept

The health insurance coverage is top notch which just goes to show our HR team is looking to keep us healthy so that we can give all our strength working for the man.

Review from Operations Dept

Regular review & benchmarking against other companies

Review from Customer Support Dept

No matter what level of the company, you qualify for a profit sharing bonus. Additionally, the perks you receive are amazing. Healthcare benefits are equally great and affordable.

Review from Customer Support Dept

I did not anticipate that I am actually going to be doing more work than what I initially thought.

Review from Operations Dept

I love the healthy incentive program perks!

Review from Operations Dept

Profit sharing is great, I personally don't qualify for stock related options but the fact that my contributions are still factored what I take home is pretty cool.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Sick time accrual is reasonable.

Review from HR Dept

The Benefits are very good, and the 401K has 25% matching.

Review from HR Dept

we share in the profits that Blizzard makes as a result of our contributions

Profit sharing and our benefits package for medical coverage.

Review from HR Dept

401 k match is really good

Review from HR Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Amazon Prime and all exclusive content needs to be included at the intern level!

Review from Product Dept

Similar positions in other companies pay significantly more.

The cost of living in Irvine is insane. I do not feel like base salaries have kept up with the cost of living here. Most of the people I work with cannot afford to buy houses.

Being paid 1/3rd of what the job I'm doing is worth by market value is a joke, which is why we're all leaving.

Review from Engineering Dept

if you value your life, stay away from Blizzard.

Review from Engineering Dept

Opportunity to earn stock option rewards.

Review from HR Dept

Access to stock is limited to upper management.

Review from Operations Dept

Our pay is lower than it should be because everyone wants to work here. Our benefits are great, with the exception of our 401K, which isn't.

Review from Engineering Dept

Blizzard is greedy, do not apply.
