• Creativity powers community
• Competition is best when it’s fair
• Helping others makes all of us stronger
• Hate has no place here

"If someone told me 3 years ago when I started my professional career that I’d be working in the video game industry, I would have never believed them.
I started at Microsoft working with an HR team, then an engineering team, and now I work at the Initiative. Working in gaming has been a huge culture shock in the best possible way—my day-to-day never looks the same, the fast-paced nature constantly keeps me on my toes, and my team consists of talented and creative artists and industry professionals who inspire me every day."

—Elaine, Studio Administrator, The Initiative
