      The thing this article leaves out is that almost all the Rockstar employees speaking out about not being overworked are from Rockstar North. In Scotland. Where there's no such thing as "at-will employment".https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/18/17995214/rockstar-employees-developers-overworked-harsh-work-conditions …

      We totally crunch in the UK tho? Signing an EU working time directive exemption is a common “requirement” of joining a studio here.

      You can opt back into that at time and can't legally be punished or fired for it though, unlike At Will states where anyone can be fired at any time for any or no reason. Companies obviously still crunch here, but I don't think it has the level of precariousness as elsewhere

      I agree that it seems harder to fire people in the UK than in other places, but in my experience the people that _don't_ opt-out, don't have a rosy time.

      Yeah, I can definitely imagine that not going down as smoothly as the law suggests it should.

      also, I think most crunch is not contractural, it's individuals choosing to work extended overtime because they feel they have to / think they want to / are worried about their progression in the company or being let go (for other BS reasons) if they don't do it

      I think there are a variety of reasons, but what the original tweet is pointing out are the cultural and legal differences which can make it inaccurate to generalize responses from one part of a large international company to everywhere else.

      yeah, I fully agree. Just relating my experience of working at a UK company where we technically couldn't have been fired for not doing crunch, yet we all did it anyway
