Electronic Arts promises workplace change

"wage and hour laws" are not outdated: Excuuuze me? "the outdated wage and hour laws"????

And what exactly would their alternative be? Slavery? It sounds like they already overwork their employees.

No, this isn't a matter of the wage laws being "outdated". This is a matter of getting through their thick skulls that there's very good reasons behind these laws.

Thy should spead their work over a longer period of time or hire more employees. Overworking existing employees is only going to drop morale and productivity.

If this continues, I predict EA will simply crack under its own pressure. There's only so much they can push before something breaks.; Posted by: CobraA1 Posted on: 12/03/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
