Solid company that looks to improve

Piranha has been around for 20 years, and has gone from making niche market fishing games, to well-reviewed mainstream titles.

The current HR is great, and this has been a huge step up for Pira...

Relaxed environment and great benefits!

I've been here for a short time but had no issues settling in! PGI is a stable, easy-going environment with a familial atmosphere. These people genuinely care about each other and are dedicated to the success of the studio. Many staff members are very tenured - which is great.
