Pros
- Incredibly driven and talented co-workers. Some of the best people I've ever met. Gamers through and through. Very fun. - Fantastic product. Great game, incredibly fun, great business model, quickly becoming a world phenomenon. I play it daily. - More successful every day. Great pay, good (and improving) benefits, exciting new challenges. - Playful work atmosphere, great extracurricular activities and clubs, active social scene, a gamer's paradise. I nerd out about stuff going on at Riot every day.
Kontras
- Long hours, often high-stress. There is a lot going on, and there is a collective feeling of "should," not "must" regarding overtime. Lots of people volunteer to stay late. I've stayed weekends maybe six times in two years. - Though there's a core-value of openness, this isn't always carried forward. Sometimes decisions are handed down rather suddenly, and I've heard the "just trust in management" argument more than once. - In response to a con in another review: they will fire you if you aren't performing. This is a results driven company, and this should be expected. That said, they will absolutely give you fair warning and work with you to see if they can correct the issue. Riot doesn't want needless turn over.
