re: #323 Aceofwhat?

Meh. EA’s HR department are the stereotype of parasitic HR. They solely exist to protect the company from litigation— not that they’re actually good at doing that.

I worked a 60 hour shift at EA. I was there, continuously, for 60 hours. Three hour nap in there somewhere, but I was just asleep at my desk. HR knew about this, knew it was common practice, and would send out stern emails saying it wasn’t to happen that they knew everyone ignored.

HR departments are only as good as the people in them, and if they’re bad, the place is a really horrible one to work at.

I usually find HR just a good, reasonably sane middle ground who’s just trying to stop things devolving into chaos.
