Serious: Why are people still working for this company?
- tomasien 13y agoI have a family member there, it's because he's highly unlikely to be fired (even as they fire lots of folks) and he's looking for the right position elsewhere.
- lowglow 13y ago> he's highly unlikely to be fired Yet. Also, out of respect for the entire sustainability of the sector, why perpetuate a company that treats engineers like disposable commodities?
- Macsenour 13y agoThey generally go hand-in-hand... those execs who treat game engineers poorly, think they can replace those same engineers in a day or so. After 30 years of seeing this over and over, I left the game industry.
- lowglow 13y agoAt the first sign of this I tend to leave a company. I just can't, in good faith, participate in treating people like this. I managed to learn a few things (no particular order): 1. work for an engineer ceo 2. work on a product that requires engineers (not just sales) 3. work for yourself maybe I'll add these to http://truth.techendo.co/ http://truth.techendo.co/
- tomasien 13y agoHe would be incredibly hard to replace for various reasons. But they're gonna have to when he leaves I guess....
- torhorway 13y agoBecause they pay above the market average and the benefits are good. (145k for 1 year out of college + 4 weeks vacation a year)
