Anyone work at Riot?

What's with all their recent negative glassdoor reviews? Are they trolls or is the studio having issues?

Is that kind of thing normal?

Sort of. The reviews are true but a very narrow slice of what has happened. Something to consider, Riot has more than 3,000 employees and due to the heavily decentralized nature of the company, there are many parts that are amazing, and a few parts which are pretty crappy. Separately the company is trying to shift around many pieces to grow into a healthier development organization for the long term, and that is also painful. The good or bad experiences are mostly based on what teams you work with, rather than a specific discipline being good or bad.

Disclaimer: I worked at Riot for many years and just recently left.
