Pluspunten

Exceptional autonomy to grow and drive the business as you see fit. I think what a lot of the people leaving negative comments about the company don't realize is compared to other big multinational companies, there is significantly less politics than they think, at least in North America. The culture is entrepreneurial which makes for interesting and engaging work. Nothing is really out of bounds so long as it makes sense/has a good payout. Management is highly protective of its workers and go to great lengths, even if it isn't immediately clear to the average worker, to protect their jobs. To me the culture is a nice balance between big company structure and small company freedom. Compensation, if you can make it past the first year or two and prove yourself, improves dramatically. The people are really a lot of fun and good to work with. Those that are not are usually not there long.

Minpunten

I don't disagree with some of the other comments listed. Upperward growth past a "director" level on the commercial side is difficult as there is just nowhere to go. Senior team members rarely move out of the company. While the 'shoot from the hip' style is mostly fun, there is a lot of room for improvement around the discipline of the business. Several top managers have grown from inside the organization and so have no understanding of different business techniques or strategies beyond what they themselves have implemented. Further, some mid to top level managers struggle with managing people and have had neither the necessary training nor the role modeling they need to be truly effective leaders. Training is not a part of the culture, as another reviewer pointed out and this clearly needs to be addressed as an necessity to retain top talent. All that said, guess what, every company has a litany of issues it needs to address. Ubi is no exception. Despite these issues, it is a phenomenal place and industry to work in with more upside than down. Grain of salt for the disgruntled reviewers who have left and want to leave a swath of destruction behind them.

Pluspunten

Remote work, free games. Good co-workers.

Minpunten

Horrendous pay, expectations of work absolutely unreasonable. Turnover rate pretty high, and instead of hiring new employees, just had the remaining team take over the work that required like 10+ employees. Then after requiring 200% productivity to make up for the lack of a team, complained about teams.
