Unbroken series of disappointments, and steadily waning confidence.

It's been pretty good. Coworkers are pretty fun to work with. Most everybody been super nice, but then the huge Diversity and Inclusion thing came along, divided everybody up by protected category and treat them differently. They call exclusion inclusion and discrimination fairness. It suuuucks.

Used to be a wonderful place to work... until ex-Microsoft employees came in and ruined everything.

The best career I've had and intend to continue as long as I can.

Overall positive. Not without rough edges or things I would like changed, Most of those rougher edges I feel the directors are addressing or are aware of.

They're fine. They seem to have a good commitment to maintain the company values. They've made some pretty big mistakes, but they've also recognised and owned those mistakes.

I feel like my voice is heard when I raise concerns. I feel that they feel feedback is not only welcome but valuable. I feel like I can give feedback without concern for censure. Actions make take time to steer in new directions, but they are being taken.

Room for autonomy. Every voice matters. Room to grow, learn and excel at your craft with tools to help.

Everything. They should set themselves on fire and fall down some stairs.

Practicing what they preach and not pillaging their employees for every drop of sweat they can ring out of them for no pay.

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

Medical coverage, with a chronic illness this is key.

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

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.

if you value your life, stay away from Blizzard.

My team has a good sense of humor. It's important that they aren't jerks and aren't touchy-feeling hypersensitive.

Everyone is extremely talented and experienced.

Everyone has the same passion to produce good work, and refine their practice. Everyone has a say in the work process, and everyone's voice is heard and honored. It is truly a team effort, and everyone is a valuable asset.

highly passionate and creative types. We succeeded or fail as a team and people are invested in the success of the group with less ego involved than I have had to work with before. This is the most number of women I have worked with directly and it is amazing not to be the only one.

Some of the smartest people I have ever worked with. If only we had better management.

My office suffers a passive-aggressive culture, where people don't address problems head-on.

Communication and teamwork are always great skillsets to be had at any tech company. Not only this, ensuring we maintain a neutral area in where all opinions from all walks of life are welcomed, not just the most vocal.

Most of the people who work here are gamers and they are passionate about their hobbies and jobs, whatever those might be.

Everyone is at work because they want to be there. And genuinely wants to be there. It's not just luxury and gaming all day. Heck playing games only happens during lunches, and an occasional once a month fun day. Everyone there wants to be there to work on awesome products.

Cooperation and collaboration. Culture. Relaxed environment. Supportive environment.

Improve the cultural undertones. My office has a passive-aggressive culture, which severely elevates a shared sense of impostor syndrome. I've never worked with such a room full of unbelievably competent people, who all simultaneously believe they are incompetent.

Not destroy the spirit and soul of your employees by paying them fairly.

The jobs I applied for and actually got involved a practical test, so I could prove my competency instead of trying to verbally convince people I knew what I was doing.

They are mostly focused on how well you will fit into the culture and the goals of the company. They do test your knowledge to make sure you can do the job. But a lot of the interview involved getting to know each other as a person, and with multiple people. 3 interviews, with 12 people

I had the most enjoyable time with my would-be coworkers as they tested my skills and problem solving. I came away having had a lot of fun and hoping I'd get to work with them.

Would be nice for it to take less than 3 months to hear back about how the job seeking process is going.

Banter and productivity. It's good to feel like you're getting work done, and it's good to feel comfortable enough to joke around with your coworkers and make them smile.

Despite my lack of college education, people have recognized how much valuable knowledge and work I can bring. I am a fast and hard worker, and they respect that so much they choose not to abuse it. The company and my team really do care.

I get to create awesome stuff and share it with a global platform of people.

Again, the "new" leadership of the past 4 years is horrendous. They need to go back to Microsoft.

It's hard to get excited about work when your managers have no clue what you do or how to do it, or even how to fairly evaluate you compared to other people in your department.
