Pros
Absolutely, positively, irrefutably, doubtlessly, none.
Kontras
-The whole hiring process feels very predatory and geared towards(if not founded on) preying on recent graduates naiveté.
-Before you're hired they tell you you'll make $34k to $37k annually which is bizarre because its pays by the hour. Then you find out after you're hired you only make $13.90/hr and for the first 90 days its only $11/hr, try living off that.
-When I was an employee there were only 4 people there that had actual industry experience outside of that company. Including the supervisors.
-Your direct supervisors are HANDS.DOWN. the worst, most awkward and uncomfortable communicators I have ever encountered.
-The pipeline is a maze of uselessness that even the director has very little idea about anymore. Once, our source files for one project were inside 37 empty folders in 3 different drives which served no purpose.
-I timed how long it took to submit anything through the pipeline, it took 14 minutes for one single submission.
- You're treated more like a child than a professional.
- No benefits what so ever.
- You never know whats going on with the company or a game, everything is very hush hush.
- You are not allowed to have a professional website, personal projects, or work on your portfolio or put anything you've done for the company in your portfolio even after the game has been published.
