What’s it like working at Epic Games??
This is a company that I’m sure many people are interested in. We don’t get to hear much since you guys are located pretty far away. What’s it like working at epic? Would you recommend it as a company? How’s compensation? Do you like the location?
Epic failures like airy day.
I heard wlb is pretty terrible, not sure if tru tho
Heard the same, but $$$ is insane
Depends on the role. Some roles are more crunch than others. Content creators — artists, etc — are more crunchy. Programming goes through cycles but isn’t constant. Less crunchy than other places in the game industry I’ve worked.
I have no idea. But nows the time to work there, while they are the hot thing. Who knows what the hot thing in gaming will be ten years from now? Remember FarmVille?
Not bad. Good benefits. Slightly erratic as a workplace, but if you’re okay with that — the pay is pretty good.
Yeah biggest issue is the fact that there’s a bunch of stuff going on at all times. Some roles are more thrashy than others — multiple company objectives can get frustrating.
We’re in Bellevue, WA as well by the way, and it’s pretty great. WLB is fine to me, but I really like my job.
Is the pay attractive?
Been here a long time and the press does not match my positive opinions. Plenty of work to be done and expectations are high but the rewards are great. I enjoy working here very much.
We’re hiring :)
What roles? Can you tell me more about what it's like working at Epic?
They need someone that can develop a shopping cart.
