"I started at Zynga in May of 2011 where I art directed their cooking game, Chefville. It was a great learning experience because I got to work with a lot of talented people with lots of great ideas. There were a lot of great games coming out from the company for the Facebook platform. Zynga was the leader of social games with its line up of popular titles like Farmville, Cityville, Chefville, etc."

"I have been working in Zynga since 2018 in the IT department. I am very happy with my team and company. The reason I want to move to another company I want to learn new technical systems and share my customer focus experience with new people. I don,t see any new openings or promises form my upper management for any pieces of training or promotions."

QA Specialist

"I worked Quality Assurance for one year for Zynga and it was a great place to work. They clearly care very much about their employees. Some of the benefits include catered lunches and dinners, theme parties every Friday, and excellent benefits. My only complaint about my time spent at Zynga is that my pay was too low for the amount and quality of work I provided."

Quality Engineering Consultant

"A really creative, very large company in the midst of trying to keep up with market changes. I worked in Quality Engineering, and this was an eye opener, since the quality of code was not what I had been accustomed to seeing in the medical field. Definitely a good company, and a nice place to work, and all good people."
