A great company with some outstanding and supportive talent.
Pros: Great people to work with. Committed to personal and professional development. Brand opens a lot of doors. Good products. Great vision to diversify into new areas. (Advertising, games, multi-channel delivery, cloud). Exciting developments in R&D.
Cons: Big company with a tendency to use overlay sales approach. A few too many spreadsheet jockeys who focus on title and promotion at the expense of making a real contribution.
