Avantages

Málaga is a great city and projects are cool.

Inconvénients

The management focus employee well-being created a toxic work environment where personal time was not respected, and employees were expected to be available even during their vacation time. The management's emphasis on the company's "core values" also created additional frustration. While one of these values was to "always be positive, and can-do attitude," in practice, this often meant that employees were discouraged from expressing any concerns or criticisms about the company or its management. The company's "speak your mind policy" was similarly empty rhetoric, as employees who raised concerns were frequently dismissed or ignored. Furthermore, the authoritarian management style of the company created a culture of fear and frustration. Employees were not consulted or involved in decisions that affected their work, and there was no clear communication about company policies or procedures. The company's emphasis on these "core values" felt more like a propaganda campaign rather than genuine values that were embraced and embodied by the organization. Overall, my experience at the company was disheartening and frustrating. On the bright side, they gave some of us the possibility of working remotely. The CEO, Randall, seems like a nice guy. The person actually ruling there is the Director of Localization, Nina. She constantly lies to her employees and actually stands in the way of anyone doing their work properly. She has 0 people management abilities, and her knowledge about localization is near to zero as she has never worked as a PM and has very little knowledge of the production chain. PMs would have to chase her everyday because she is never available, while at the same time she demands that all decisions must run through her first.

Avantages

Belinda is a sweetheart and colleages are generally nice. It's probably OK for a first AAA game experience.

Inconvénients

Organisation is a disaster, testers are often left out of management info and they're late communicating important things. The NDA is extremely abusive and the pay (mostly if you are Spanish) is piss poor. You're not allowed to put on your resume the titles you've worked on even if the game is already out in the market, which hinders your possibilities to be hired by other companies. Be careful as clients have the power to cut the projects short and the company won't help relocate you in another project or anything whatsoever. If you have to go to the doctor (or have something important to do) they will force you to do overtime (even if there's nothing to do) just to please the client, as they hire per hour, which I'm not sure is legal at all. Also, if you get sick you'll just get fired and be replaced immediately.

Avantages

Good work-life balance, nice management and colleagues, great area with green spaces around the office.

Inconvénients

The location of the tech park is quite far from malaga centre, so the commute took time. Some colleagues stayed in the nearby Campanillas, but I would still prefer to stay in the city centre as there's more opportunities for free time and social life.
