Pros

High chance of career growth, you will meet a lot talented individuals. The office being in Barcelona gives you high chances of finding a better job after some months working in Social Point and realizing how poor the current state of the company is.

Cons

Poor management. Poor HR. Poor direction. Most project owners have little to no idea of the game industry, and just try to mimic what good devs do e.g. "Oh, Supercell did this? Let's copy them". This is verified by the fact that in so many years Social Point only succesful projects have been copies from other games. But yet, even having such a large R&D department, they have not successfully launched a single title Even though the company tries to promote they are a "flat structure" without management, where all individual are equal game makers... False. In many years of experience, one of the most hierarchical companies you could find. Many "Leads" or managers have genuinely 0 leadership and management skills. They just got promoted to that role as a way from Social Point to keep them in the company by giving them a higher status and higher salary. But they lack those skills. And for more, just check more "cons" from many other reviews. Avoid those reviews that look "Good" saying everything is awesome etc... because they are done by HR. Hell, the culture of the company is so bad there is even a facebook group literally insulting the ceo's and management

Pros

It's a great place if you want other people to be telling you what to do and have no proactivity. Just say yes, do the thing, keep your boss happy.

Cons

You are as valuable as your manager thinks you are if they can use you to advance their career within the company. If working conditions suffer and you structure a group to raise your concerns, they'll come up with some excuse to kick you and everyone else who has raised a concern out. The people that could jump ship taking a different job have jumped ship. Most of the people left are those can benefit from the current system to exploit it and further their career, and those who really need their job to survive.
