Let's have a look at some glassdoor reviews the community recently dug up about PGI and their company culture. Does any of this sound familiar to you folks who found yourself with your head in your hands over the last year due to PGI's poor decision making, the disaster of Solaris, and their stubborn/arrogant reaction to community feedback?
"New features should be reviewed more frequently and allow time for multiple iterations before setting a live date to it. Prevent incomplete and/or poorly designed features from going live."
"Feature creep is an issue and management doesn't allow for it to be implemented properly due to tight deadlines."
"Poor judgment and inability to get the projects where they need to be.
Lack of competent management expertise in their so called fields.
Poor Planning and design choices forces frustration and tension in the workplace.
Multiple projects thinning out development on main project.
Stop development... Sit, Think, take a Breath and make a real plan for once.
Actual look at and in-house test features before even announcing poorly thought out plans.
Maybe stop forcing your bad decisions on the project and I don't know, maybe talk to real people about the projects path and not people you hire in your community to be yes men."
"Upper management should check up on senior staff more often. Discuss the product, their current job, and their future with the company."
"Pointless to give advice, as their hubris precludes them from listening or learning from their appalling mistakes."
"Trust and respect the great people that you have working for you and get rid of terrible, selfish leads who care more about power than producing an amazing product."
"Not a good place to work, only buddies with the owners get FT. long hours with poor pay. Art Directors and producers really expect a lot considering they were fired from their jobs or have 0 game experience. Don't work here."
"This company would be amazing to work for, were it not for the troika running it. The three main executives are consistently nepotistic towards advancement, callous towards their customers, arrogant towards licencors, stubborn to new and useful ideas, and outright deceitful in their promises to customers and employees alike. They will happily make you work overtime without any intention to recognize or pay for it. They are also willing to sacrifice the career and names of their workers if it means avoiding ever apologizing for their own mistakes and policies. Never bother with this company for products or employment."
