Ventajas

Some people are good at their job and they try to make changes but their voices get lost in the muck of incompetence, misogyny and megalomania that is the other upper management

Desventajas

Where to start? Pay - under market value (masked as the "sacrifice" you make to work in "such a great company" Promotion - everyone is a "junior" - especially all the women are "junior" - doesn't matter if you come in with 3, 5+ years of experience- you start off as a junior "for the opportunity to work for this amazing company" - they told me I would be hired to build a team, then I found out after I started that my internal title was actually "junior" - when I came from a senior position at my former work place - they just snuck it in there Atmosphere and work environment- they want to be triple A but the reality is they don't have the internal structure to be that - zero processes put in place, micromanagement, bullying, egos about the grateness of IO - and when you actually look at how they are structured internally it's shocking. working on equipment that isn't meant for gaming - poor quality. internal tracking and communication is a joke - no proper channels, no access to tracking tools - I really have no idea how they've made it so far - but I guess Hitman was the lucky break. Overall it seams that management is constructed on the "bro code" - the company is very much like a fraternity - you see women in their promo materials but in reality women are very much a minority (and of course the ones who are there are either "junior" or in HR, finance or office management) in all the meetings I've participated I've heard a woman's voice once - and overall it was my experience that this was a BRO company. Advice - run away. They have good rectuiters and good PR and they lie very well but once you're there, you're garbage. Don't get fooled by the alure and prospects of this "IO magic" - its all smoke, no substance.

Ventajas

- Great people to work with, that try to create a fun and good environment - Fun projects that can be inspiring to work on

Desventajas

- Terrible communication, even though one of the pillars of the company is to "speak true" - it rarely is the case - Bad management and directors. Pretty much all directors hold their current positions based on nepotism and not skill, which shows. Everything is planned as if done by amateurs. - Some of the lowest salaries you'll see. They'll blame that on the local competition, but the local competition is paying criminally low already. If you compare to other studios in similar situations and sizes as IOI, you'll realize that your salary will be way below average. - Preaches no crunch culture and pride themselves on that they have never crunched. This couldn't be farther from the truth. We crunch, and recently it's been a lot of it. Yet the studio doesn't want to openly call it crunch, and instead labels it as us being "passionate". We are not passionate. We are crunching. Be honest. - The inexperience and miscommunication of certain producers and leads is horrible. Again, communication between teams is bad as it is, and with a game release on the horizon, everyone is focusing on fixing the product rather than fixing the team that is building it.

Ventajas

Algunas personas son agradables, la comida a veces estaba bien. Muy flexible con las necesidades de los asientos.

Desventajas

Las reseñas que les dan 5 estrellas son nuevas o parte del problema. Oye... probablemente haya peores empresas, y mi experiencia trabajando aquí no fue del todo negativa. Conocí buenos amigos y buenos compañeros. Pero la cultura aquí no es la mejor. ¡Empezarás a trabajar aquí y pensarás que es el mejor lugar del mundo durante el primer o segundo año! Hasta que te das cuenta de que esta empresa funciona como un instituto. La mayoría de la dirección olvida que es solo un juego y que se supone que es divertido trabajar en videojuegos, pero le quitan el aliento. Hay bastante gente tóxica trabajando aquí, con un delirio de poder sobre los demás. Y creo que ese es el problema. El ambiente se vuelve bastante negativo y mucha gente renuncia por eso.
