Pros

The only Pro of working here was all the other great people you work with (That generally all quit after less than a year)

Cons

Horrible working hours - (You will be put on an early shift or a late shift) You could change to another shift if management like you though, I put a request in to change shifts and didnt get a response for 6 months, during that time several other testers switched shifts before me. Obvious bias for management favourites - There was a group of testers that were allowed to choose their own working hours, where the rest of the test team were not, despite all having the exact same job title & role. Low Pay - 6.50 an hour for Functionality tester, 7.50 for Senior Functionality tester is an absolute joke. Zero-Hour Contract - No commitment to their staff, planning at least 3 months in advance is something that SEGA must already be doing, but they are still not willing to commit even a month of work to their testers, the entire team was told during lunch time that there would be no more work for us in the forseeable future and that we should not come in the next working day, they said they would call us when they needed us.

Pros

They have great benefits for the position.

Cons

Favoritism. Lack of training for new hires, No communications on how to meet expectations if your manager isn't your best friend. Small teams that act like clicks.
