Well, it's nothing really new to anyone who has paid some attention to game development, but it's always nice to read bitter memories. Just like when all those Sierra developers started to talk about how shitty life was in Sierra even back in the golden days. Thought it would be a nice uplifting reading.
Noticed it in the Surfer Girl. Here's the link.
And here's an excerpt.
"EA gets a lot of the grief for their employment history.
For anyone considering work at Bioware, beware of them as well.
They use seriously cult like tactics to keep their employees towing the company line, but don't be fooled. The second you don't tow that line you'll be walked out the doors.
They love out of country workers because they don't understand the Canadain labour laws. They continually fire people with out warning. This is illegal in Canada. You must warn people of performance problems and give them a certain amount of warnings before you are allowed to fire someone."
