Could be better, but could also be much worse.

Pros

- A majority of passionate, creative, talented and friendly people to work with. - There are many opportunities to make a difference. - There has been very few layoffs, even during bad years. Job stability is way above average for the industry. - Work/life balance is above average as well. Crunch time obviously still happens but has gotten a lot better over the years.

Cons

- You are likely to switch teams/projects fairly often according to needs. As a result it will be harder to form lasting bonds with your colleagues. - A lot could change in the company culture if Vivendi takes over. - Projects tend to have way more people than is really needed, creates a lot of overhead as a result.

Pros

Working for a company that released some of the greatest video games. It's great being a part of something that brings happiness to people.

Cons

Not only is there no room for growth. They have a method of hiring contracted employees for cheap and then giving them the boot when the contract is over to hire another contract employee for cheap. That way they don't have to provide full time benefits. Not only that, the environment disappointingly lacks any sort of passion for video games. People are there because they have to be. My own boss didn't know anything about video games in general. In one meeting, someone in management uttered the words, "It doesn't matter what we do, we have our fanboys to buy the games." Then I guess we can all just go home right? This place is like the behind the scenes of Disneyland, sad and dream crushing. Unless you want to be treated like crap, and have no Holidays off (because we're a French company of course), stay at your own risk.
