Business Outlook
Pros
- Top of industry pay - Great benefits - World class games
Cons
- Jobs are no longer secure - Most leadership is new and filled with people with NO gaming experience - Company is no longer player focused, just focused on money - Layoffs are now common - Layoffs are NOT consulted or planned with the direct manager. Managers would have no idea their direct report was laid off until right before it happened, or even after - Layoffs are money motivated with entire art teams being let go, with the plan to bring in AI and vendors to fill that work - Accepted severe crunch. Plenty of "we'll make it better next time" but next time doesn't come - Department leaders have no idea how to fight for their team, and actually win
