Forcing people to work over weekends, 84 hour weeks, finding any excuse to make them quit or fire them "for cause" like making them print their code out physically? The end of the year is coming. It's supposed to be the holidays soon. Thanksgiving is in like 3 weeks. C'mon, dude.

- abledon 4y agoHaving employees pull 80+ hr crunch time is common in the AAA game industry... whats so bad about it happening for a few weeks at twitter?
- waaveshine 4y agoYes it is common in the gaming industry. That is not a good thing nor a justification for it happening elsewhere.
- lawn 4y agoHaving then pull 80+ weeks is bad no matter where it is. The game dev work environmental is notoriously shitty, that doesn't make it okay to make it shitty elsewhere.
- Tiktaalik 4y agoIt is no longer common at all.
- gizmo385 4y ago> Having employees pull 80+ hr crunch time is common in the AAA game industry You say that as if the working conditions in the AAA game industry _aren't_ widely regarded as horrible... Crunch happening in the games industry isn't a defense of it happening elsewhere. It shouldn't be happening in the games industry either.
