What do you like best about the leadership team?
They work hard to deliver a great experience and keep trying new things
Very thorough with every decision
Great leadership team with good planning
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
To stop treating us like weasels
They need to learn how to schedule and resource video games properly. Wildly inaccurate estimations have led to some insane hours and frustrating problems that could have easily been avoided with proper planning.
Listening, understanding the impact of their decisions + other departments, and supporting/recognizing the work of the teams.
The management team needs to work on reducing the aggression in the workplace, overstressing junior employees.
Anything and everything. I hate it here
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The community is the best part of being compensated
The pay and benefits are top tier.
It shares the company success with employees
Extending vacation packages allow me for time with family.
Full insurance and generous pto
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
100 employees were "let go". How about the CEO isn't paid hundreds of thousands of dollars and help those effected?
Dont make us all contractors , hire us as full time employees
More year bonus could be great due to the nature of private company

New management at most levels.

Review from Design Dept
Pay us more, let us make more independent decisions, and stop rushing products. Car companies don't sell the skeleton frame of a car, they finish it first.
working to support change vs sticking with status quo and further caring about the impact on employees that certain decisions make vs not caring
The crunch culture needs to be reduced. Especially with the casual homophobia present in some upper management.
What did you like most about the interview process?
I was able to say what was on my mind with minimal prepackaged answers
meeting a wide range of people that I would interact with
I got hired at the company.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
I would prefer less casual harrassment from the interviewing board, often including Pete Parsons.

Helping people that have not been able to get things done on their own
when we make meaningful change that helps the players and grow the games
I find leaving work the best part of my work day.

Leaving, going home, and playing Halo.
