    Blizzard is so shit that when I had internship offers from two predatory gaming megacorps, Blizzard and EA, I took the EA position because they didn’t have a history of abusing and sexually harassing their employees.

    Was a real Sophie’s Choice there for me.

        Haha, I wish I could say I left their offices cussing and flipping them off, but I actually had a great experience working for them.

        Their customer practices are horrendous, and management is 100% always down to nickel-and-dime every possible aspect of the games they can get away with. But the internal practices and office culture are actually pretty robust regarding toxicity, sexual harassment and work-life balance, at least at the office I was at. I can’t speak to fair compensation, since I was an intern.

        Ok enough EA shilling. Don’t buy their games, they hate gamers and see you as nothing but bags of money, lol.
