Ubisoft Game Programmer reviews

Nothing as such. No problem

Upper management and the studio leadership is a mess at best and hostile at worst. HR is unnecessarily bureaucratic and makes advancing in seniority (and pay) nearly impossible. Their lack of flexibility leads to a seemingly arbitrary system of seniority, where employees of nearly 10 years are at the same level as those who have only been around for 4 despite having vastly disparate amounts of experience. Upper management have not only silently cut benefits (and staff) without informing employees ahead of time, but they then refuse to be transparent when asked to clarify their reasons for these decisions and if they've considered the consequences that will impact the teams as a result. Pay is also uncomfortably low to live in Toronto, especially considering the skyrocketing cost of rent and groceries. It doesn't seem like this issue is going to be fixed anytime soon- if you plan on working here, consider looking for a roommate.
