Pros

Company values - Creativity: tries to keep different from others. Critics sometimes call it the "French Touch" - Accessiblity: Games for Everyone Teammates: - Lots of talent, lots to learn - Good ambience - Mutual aid Job progression: - You choose your carreer - Tech guys needn't do management to progress. Expertise is recognized

Cons

- Salary is not very competitive compared to other sectors/other countries. - Some administrative processes are somewhat heavy - Finally, Ubisoft is still a young company (26 years old at the time of writing) that has grown quickly. It still lacks some maturity in production processes, or in its global organization, but looks aware of it, and works towards the better. - Little consideration for the PC market

Pros

Ubisoft is a very human company living on European standards of work, which means a pretty good work-life balance, understanding people, flexible hours, but first and foremost: Ubisoft is a creative company, lead by visionnary people that understand games and gamers. And when you're working in the games industry, that's really the best you can ask for.

Cons

Ubisoft has the problems of its size: a cripplingly-slow structure with a lot of office politics, a lot of people running around with no dedicated mission or objectives, etc. Due to the size of the structure, career progression is also quite slow with little opportunities, and salaries are quite low in this very competitive industry.
