Pluspunten

Nice employees. Not necessarily a game studio atmosphere, but employees are nice nonetheless.

Minpunten

I could go on for days... -Terrible management. -High turnover rate. -Owners don't care about employees. They try to buy employees with snacks but don't offer any real benefits. -Owners are in the game industry but don't have any passion for it. All they care about is getting $$$ paid, no matter how small it is. -Forget giving you two-weeks notice, they give you 30 minutes notice at the end of the day Friday after you've worked a long hard day. -The company is run incorrectly. There is no pre-production or design phase. They just throw a bunch of paper in the air and say "do it the way I imagine it done in my head". So when it's done and the client changes their minds, they make it your fault. Real game companies do pre-production and design to avoid these issues... -Employees are severely underpaid. This place is even worse than an intern-mill. I would only recommend this place if you had to choose between working here and working in the porn industry. Even then, it would be a close call because porn stars actually get paid. Proceed with caution. Even if you use this job as a stepping stone, the game industry is small and most other game companies already know why you're trying to leave AppPartner. Could end up hurting you in the long run.

Pluspunten

-Coworkers are intelligent, friendly, and helpful. -Loose dress code with flexible hours. -Management has learned some valuable lessons over the past year with regards to project management and how to treat their employees. -High transparency into company practices and decision making reasons. -Employees are able to suggest changes to company practices and project implementation. -Monthly company events. -Management is earnestly doing its best to try to improve and is open to feedback.

Minpunten

-On days where a deadline needs to be met or where an app needs to be built out the the store, employees are occasionally forced to work extra hours which can result in 12hr+ workdays. This can be stressful and is not ideal for employees who have long commutes to work. -Some Legacy projects can be difficult to work with due to poor implementation and spaghetti code. -Salaries are somewhat below the Industry Standard due to the company still being fairly small. -Still needs to iron out some kinks when planning out fixed contract projects and doing time estimates.
