Avantages
- The best work environment you could expect in an Indian game studio - Every employee, from the security gaurd to the managing director, is treated with a certain amount of respect. - Fellow programmers are talented and eager to help. Technically sound people command a lot of respect from the top management. If you're good and eager to learn, then in Ubisoft you will. - It's a big company globally but the Pune studio has a small company vibe. You have a sense of ownership. If the game you worked on makes a profit, 25% of the game's profits are shared with the dev team. People have taken home project bonuses of 1 lac+ in the past. - Equality, a feeling of brotherhood and 'we're in it together', project-centric work ethic, respect for employee rights, and a good work/life balance make this an awesome place to work. - As a programmer you get to work on cutting edge stuff created by the teams in Montreal and France. Have a problem? Just ping the programmers in Paris over office messenger and have a chat! You learn from the best in the field.
Inconvénients
Salaries are on the lower side. Other companies could pay me up to 3-4 lacs more per annum. But I still choose to be here. Why? No other studio in India provides you this kind of opportunity and work atmosphere. If you love money more than games, you might not want to apply here.
