Pros
- Flexible Work Hours - Excellent Benefits - Bright, Cheerful Workspace - Unlimited Growth Potential - Passionate, Driven Leadership - Excited, Supportive Management - Exhaustively in-depth interview process Riot Games is a pinnacle in the game industry, exemplifying the philosophy that a studio can maintain a large daily workforce, high quality and constant improvement and expansion without sacrificing work environment, salary or employee well-being
Kontras
- Inexperienced leadership and management - Occasionally conflicting goals and strategies - Santa Monica traffic and living costs are prohibitive - Lack of feedback on performance from management - "Boys Club" mentality to process improvement and new ideas, if you're not already part of the in-group, your opinion is undervalued One downside of Riot's meteoric rise to publish the most-played game in the world is a lack of foundation building and infrastructure stabilization. Young leaders and managers bring drive and passion to a workforce, but inexperience and some naivete cause the success to rest on a shaky framework.
