Pros

Ubisoft is the best of the bunch for big publishers in the video game industry as an employee. I appreciate the decentralized decision making (teams have a lot of autonomy), the values which extend all the way to the top of the company at the c-level (trust creative people, and they will do great things for you), and the support. The Singapore studio has exited its "startup" phase and is becoming a more mature studio - but hasn't lost its ambitions. It's still a place where I feel a lot of energy and enthusiasm when I walk through the doors every morning.

Cons

Every company has niggling issues - and Ubisoft is no exception. One of the big trade-offs is that game companies tend to be "led" by one group or another - design, tech, marketing, or business. At Ubisoft, its business and design. Which means that technology, for example, is viewed as a "solution to specific problems" rather than something that enables new businesses. If that's what you're looking for (hardcore R&D), Ubisoft is no Google.

Pros

Remote work, free games. Good co-workers.

Cons

Horrendous pay, expectations of work absolutely unreasonable. Turnover rate pretty high, and instead of hiring new employees, just had the remaining team take over the work that required like 10+ employees. Then after requiring 200% productivity to make up for the lack of a team, complained about teams.
