Holy shit. Never thought I'd see the day. When I was working QA they would lay us off after the end of every project. It sucked. We'd be off work for months at a time. No benefits, no healthcare, no OT pay, long hours, bullshit 1099 contracts. And if you were on a shit title, sorry homie. Enjoy Barbie's Island adventure.
QA could use some unionizing across the software/game industry imo.
It's amazing how buggy websites of billion dollar companies are. They either don't have a QA team or don't prioritize any of the bugs they file. If I were still in that field I'd probably team up with some litigious ADA lawyers.
