Pros

Some of the team members are friendly and helpful international company, big name useful to have on your resume

Cons

Career opportunities - management doesn't care about you, your career or anything related, you are used and then tossed away whenever they feel like it Location - in the middle of nowhere, no good eating places around - besides sandwiches Salary - on average 20-30% lower than anywhere else for the same position (their the excuse: "but we have this amazing culture, and we work on these amazing games, plus newcastle is cheap") Overtime - needed, based on peer pressure (to be honest, it was slowly improving) Company values - just some nice-looking words put on a wall, NOBODY cares about them, nobody enforces them Politics - if you enjoy being part of office politics, you will feel at home in Reflections, otherwise I suggest you stay away No paid overtime!!! (except for testers); compensation time instead of paid overtime is the amount of overtime done, divided by 3 (for example, you do 15 hours overtime - you get 5 free hours in return, with a maximum of 10 days)

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.
