A great creative company and culture that encourages collaboration and contribution. Poor leadership leaves teams pushing buggy work, incomplete features, or never shipping. Company leadership will often make heavy handed decisions that undermine ICs who work on titles full time.
What do you like best about the leadership team?
I like the optimism ELT has
What are some of the best things about your team?
My team is full of smart people who are great to work with, no ego and no gate keeping.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Company is sympathetic to many political issues and at the ELT level deeply cares about creating a positive impact on the world through our games
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Me and colleagues all report feeling we are paid below market value and subject to game industry crunch. There is huge gaps in compensation between mid level and senior level employees.
