Please share! I've worked in the games industry, I'll believe anything :-)
- mettamage 5y agoI'm curious, what did you experience in the game industry in order to believe anything?
- dboreham 5y agoGames industry is notorious for abusing their employees: mandatory weekend work for months at a time, etc.
- georgeecollins 5y agoEven when no one is being abused you have people who pour their lives into a game, knowing that they have a deadline. What they get into a particular game by a deadline can effectively define their career. Its not just a lot of pressure, its a lot of pressure with a lot of passion and a lot of visibility.
- fl8190a 5y agoI made it sound too interesting. I just meant to point out two things that are pretty obvious to external observers (one of which is that manufacturing work is often less predictable and more after-hours than something like SW development). Given the stories I've heard, I don't think anyone can compete with the gaming industry!
