Pros

Opportunity to learn new things. Opportunity to grow if you can play politics and make right connections.

Cons

Highly toxic work environment where employees are bullied and disrespected by the production management. All complaints to HR will be ignored as they view employees as disposable. Extremely poor planning. There is no effort to plan as they know they can make employees work overtime. The company demands 100% loyalty. If you start to question the overtime or the unfair practices, they seen you as enemy. The company has a “if you have a problem, you can leave” mindset knowing that not everyone can leave suddenly specially during covid times. So none of complaints will be heard as they are seen as your problems. You will be made to work till dried up and burned out. No work life balance. You are expected to do 15 hour shifts, weekend work and anything else that is needed for project delivery. The overtime is seen as the mistake of the employees even though there was poor project planning. Leaves will only approve when it is convenient to company. When you complaint about overtime and other unfair practices, they will say this is how gaming industry is. You cannot communicate ideas as every decision related to design, art, programming and everything else is supervised by production manager. None of your ideas or your experience matter.
