Pros

A few of nice people

Cons

Full of people who have never worked either anywhere else or only in the same industry. There is so much technical debt and arrogance. Unqualified people in high places only because of tenure. Didn't invent any of the technology. This company is a classic case of corporate welfare.

Pros

For the Montreal studio: - Great perks: kindergarten, free gym with kinesiologists available to give classes and build tailored programs, bonuses based on game profitability or studio profitability, medical clinic on site, etc. - Opportunity to work on large projects (AAA games), smaller ones, or even in satellite groups such as the Technology Group, IT, etc. - Large company so there is a lot of opportunity for moving around in the company, especially at a large studio like the one in Montreal.

Cons

- Triple AAA project teams tend to get very large, especially towards the end, which slows many things down and may contribute to feeling like a tiny cog in a huge machine. - People working on games often have to work unpaid overtime (supper is provided).
