Pluspunten

I worked at Z2 for nearly 2 years, and I feel like I should add my two cents here. First of all, this is a highly competitive industry, and there is an expectation of competency and passion at this company. If you are good at your job, not a slacker, and you have a passion for the business of making mobile games; this is a great company to work for. I had a generally good experience in my time at the company. I noticed some of the reviews on this site are singling out specific execs and attacking them personally. However, my experience with management, such as Lou Fasulo (CEO), was not at all like what I read from those reviews. I found him to be determined to make Z2 a great company. Every company has its growing pains, and there will always be those who feel personally targeted by big business decisions, such as downsizing or canceling a title-in-development -- but again, I feel like I was always treated fairly and honestly by upper management in my time there. Take it for what it's worth.

Minpunten

Relatively demanding game-development environment is not for everyone; and can sometimes make work/life balance difficult to maintain. Occasional growing pains.

Pluspunten

The people here were incredible. Tons of talent all very passionate; it was a joy to work with everyone. The games that Z2 developed were real games for mobile, not these skinner boxes that are dominating the market. Z2 makes really cool games. They mostly cared about their customers, there was a few places were they could have cared a bit more, but overall it was a positive view of customers. The art teams were 1000% incredible. I didn't work on the art teams but working with the artists was fantastic. The art director was superb. The designers were really cool and hilarious people. Company parties were fantastic places to socialize with everyone. Location is so amazing, right next to Pike's Place Market and so many delicious restaurants.

Minpunten

First off, they gave way too much power to the PMs. The PMs were pretty good overall, but there was a very us vs them culture and they always got the final word. During my employment we worked a crazy amount of hours, we loved our projects so we put it in however we probably worked more crunch hours than regular hours.
