So a legit union busting and toxic work environment over at Double Fine. It would have been better if Microsoft took them out first

thinking about that one moment in psych-odyssey where a newer staff member brings up the crunch culture issue and tim immediately flips a switch to asshole boss mode. what a shame

Kicker is, so is most of Double Fine. Which is why most of the company wasn't eligible to join the union.

I’ll have to read this but it sure sounds retaliatory in an larger environment where regulators work for the bosses

yeah I read a little bit before lunch and I felt like that sentence HIT hard, and hopefully is investigated further

Trust no fucking boss in the world

Tim Schafer deciding between paying his workers a living wage or blowing half the game budget on celebrity voice actors for a point and click adventure game.

Double Fine is its workers, and without the workers, this guy's nothing but a coattail rider.

For me its was the "this is going to sound anti-union but.." comment. Anything that starts like that is rancid

I just bought their Keeper game too in support of them going independent. This sucks man. Unionize for the love of god.

Yeah, this was especially troublesome since DoubleFine has their yearly game jam which means that a lot of the company has technically managed other people before.

Apparently I am wrong and they actually did the other thing, which is make everyone a manager (managers also can't join unions).
