Might be a bit of a stretch to use that analogy here.
By this logic any dev team that shows a positive trend in employee wellbeing is simply because the unhappy ones left. Which clearly is not true.
- Aeolun 4y ago> the latest results are the most positive they’ve been in years Emphasis mine. It doesn’t say anything about the trend. For all we know a whole batch of people giving a 0 star rating just left, and therefore this year is positive. Anyway, I don’t necessarily disagree with you, but you need more information to make a judgement.
- rco8786 4y ago> but you need more information to make a judgement That is quite literally the entire point I was making, fwiw. “Recent surveys show people are happier” “oh it must be because all the unhappy people left”. You can’t jump to that conclusion, or use the airplane analogy to get there, without a whole lot more info.
- Herbstluft 4y ago> which clearly is not true Is it clear? Given the incredibly high turnover rate at any point of time in the games industry it does not sound like the worst assumption to make, true or not. (And having worked in the industry myself not that long ago, none of my friends and colleagues from that time still work in it. But that is just anecdotal)
