Pros

In San Francisco, the benefits are not bad. There are great programs like Christmas with kids, free games, and a healthy respect for your time off and family balance when it comes to maternity leave. The people are also really great overall. Individually there are wonderful people there and there's a great creative energy in many teams like Brand, Marketing, and Creative Services.

Cons

All the other reviews are dead on. Politically charged with completely out of touch and inept management. The management is failing investing in weak products and poor direction. There is far too many levels of oversight and bureaucracy and little recognition. Most of all, there's a ceiling where you must speak french to be promoted. It is a terrible place to work where people smile at you and then maneuver to take credit for your work. Especially in the studios its barely better than third world labor. People are treated like cattle and incompetent middle managers take all the credit while deflecting blame on to others. There are tremendous failures that would embarrass any other company, but it seems that managers always just get promoted. They are no longer in any position to actually acquire quality talent. Once they run their IPs of Assassin's Creed and Just Dance into the ground this company will be lined up for bankruptcy.

Pros

Working here in itself is fine, the atmosphere is good, the coworkers are a friendly bunch, and the south of france is a really nice place to work

Cons

way, way too much politicking from people. Management is an absolute joke, the plan seems to change on a nearly daily basis.
