hi everyone, i just received an software engineering internship offer at Blizzard in Irvine, CA for the summer. I wanted to get some insight on how the work culture is there. I also wanted to consider this offer based on if I were to work there full time after the internship and wanted to get insight on what a new grad software engineer compensation looks like. If you have an insight you can provide, i would greatly appreciate it!

For some reason, read it as brazzers
I have several friends that work/have worked there, both non-tech and tech. The consensus is that the WLB are terrible during crunches and the TC is about the same. Those who are still there are actively grinding or seeking out other opportunities. Best of luck, and congrats on securing the offer. Perhaps feel out how the internship goes and make a decision from there.
Congrats what's the intern offer
Thank you! Working on the Platform, Social Features team
Good luck, should be a worthwhile experience. Culture will be a bit polarizing, it's a non game team so it will be more akin to what you'd see at other tech companies. That department in general is somewhat polarizing but highly recommend it for at least an internship.
