I have observed the same thing. I dont know if there is an equation, but it think it just comes from bloated HT department. There is only so much Facebook and Instagram browsing that HR folks can do in one day, eventually they have to do so

Does NMS count as an MMORPG? But to your point yes of course, MMOs that are subscription based need these updates. Regardless, parent was wrong.

They definitely do rework modern games. I don't know if it's still technically EA but No Man's Sky gets massive patches regularly. MMOs also get game changing updates.

And I guess you really embody the tagline in your profile "You're probably not on this site to have your viewpoints challenged, are you?" Easier to quip than to actually answer questions and provide details/context huh?

How was I "verbally abusing" the poster when all I did was ask for some clarifications? "CEO only cares about money" is a completely shallow statement when it doesn't provide concrete examples to understand the cont

The gradually reducing approach may work for some, but not for me. I had a massive health scare before Christmas (the C word was a strong possibility, luckily turned out being nothing) and after that decided to change a lot of things for my

Happened to me with my mortgage. Got this very weirdly phrased letter about how my homeowner insurance info needed to be updated/confirmed and that I had to go to <random website> to clear it out. I called my insurance broker and

I don't know if it became the norm in the US because of remote work, but as a manager I make a point of announcing to my team when one of them just got let go. Like in the next 30min or so. I guess I don't tell all teams and all o

When women fall behind it's because of sexism, patriarchy, misogyny, etc etc. When men fall behind it's because they are dumb, lazy, immature. It's unfortunate that it's probably gonna take a sacrificed generation before

In the US too you get paternity leave, it's very fishy to see someone claim they got fired for announcing that their partner is expecting. This is a massive liability.

Yes it is common when the employee is being terminated. It may depend on the industry, but it's always been like that at the 10+ companies I worked at. Honestly, I much prefer it to the long notice (sometimes 3 months!) you get in say
