Would you also kill for a job at Blizzard Ent.?

[nanoneo]

I would. But I've studied the wrong subject.
And I live on the other side of this planet.

[wrathblade]

not sure if... but 110% disturbing if your actually willing to end someone els his life just so you can work somewhere...

[nomorepriest]

Been there done that back in 1.0 when it was cool... now everyone is jumping ship.

[MisterBigglez]

Ill see what happens in the next 5 years after my studies.

[nanoneo]

OK, take it more metaphorically.

"would you love to work at/with Blizz" would be the better question.

I hope at any time soon they need someone regarding German tax systems.

I doubt they mean it literally, more idiomatically.

Nope, I'd rather work for a company like CDPR than Blizzard.

[TriHard]

Seems like a boring workplace tbh, I don't think the smaller guys have much to say in the direction of games, etc.

No, most gaming software companies treat their employees like shit. Blizzard's rep is better than most of them but it still isn't a place I would want to work.

Only to come here and read the thousand of bullshit post about "DEV AREN'T CAPABLE TO FIX MUH CLASS" or the other post/thread by 16y old that try to understand a MMORPG and laugh at them.

Hey people in the military kill every day for abit of cash

Pretty sure they don't do it "for a bit of cash".

[McNeil]

So I kill someone to get a job at Blizzard...... then end up in jail for actually killing someone. Doesn't seem like the smartest thing to do unless Blizzard is willing to bribe me out of jail.

[FelPlague]

Pretty sure they don't do it "for a bit of cash".

I mean, there is quite alot of people who join the military for the cash.

[Frumpy Frumpy Frak]

No, I'd rather have a well paying job that doesn't treat me like an expendable piece of shit.

[Eazy]

I mean, there is quite alot of people who join the military for the cash.

Yeah, but they're not killing other people.
I mean - not everyone, not even most of them.

My dream job is being a writer for Blizzard, but I really can't find anything online that tells you how to get in the video game writing field. Its all programming this, modeling that. Someone has to write those item descriptions, where the hell do they get their start?

[Evaddon]

They hire for big positions all the time so, yeah.

They actually have a really awesome headquaters, obviously even more so if you're a fan of their IP's

[Marrilaife]

10 years ago maybe, nowadays I have the impression they're understaffed (ticket response time, lack of Q&A and bug-ridden patch releases) and underpaid and the company can fire you anytime when they cba to pay you anymore (like that music director guy) so the CEOs can have more money to divide among themselves.

Working in a big corpo is rarely rainbows and roses no matter what the PR people tell you.

I hope you're not serious with that reply.
