Yes Costco. I need a 50lb bag...I mean sack of sugar.

Assuming they do since none of them have anything bad to say in breaking in articles/twitter/facebook/website/everything Bungie oversees.

thats the point. if you have a job you most likely enjoy it. but with each job there are negative aspects to them. so why cant we hear what they are? they are going to change depending on the stage of the project.

Fairly certain the part they hate most is the withholding of information. But they can't change that.

'Why not?' Perhaps because... focusing on any negatives does not help a company image. Why would they say bad things about their own company? That's bad PR is it not?

I have to say yorkie, not only have you been consistent in your signature of every post, without cessation and hesitation, you have maintained the very level and horrid destruction of the english language.

  • 09.17.2012 11:55 AM PDT

I'm pretty sure describing the negative aspects of a job to the public is somewhere along the lines of making the company look bad (don't know the actual term for it). Unless they want to lose their jobs, they're not going to give you any straight answers.

@Helveck

Just an Average Joe...

How about time sensitive pressures and deadlines? Or being your own worst critic against your work? Or how about the worry and concern that your product may not turn out how you want it, and as such may not please fans? Or oh, let's not forget the long strenuous hours of staring at a computer screen and working ridiculously long and late hours, and barely being able to see your family while in crunch mode?

I am no reliable source, but I would think after observing the gaming industry for ten plus years, knowing what they have to go through is just common knowledge and similar to many other office jobs that rotate around big projects.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

If you work there you better like it. Working at Bungie is a privilege.

no im not saying say anything negative towards anything, but like all jobs good and bad. what i was getting at is what helveck said. but i was interested in specific things from each employees. deej said something in another thread the other day that made me wonder.

im wanting to be ATC and my ATC prof was informing us of the pros and cons of the job, so why hide anything. ifs employees telling of personal experiences theyve had.

What kind of question is that? Of course they do, prancing around with 'recon armour and flames', teasing community forum goers with a new game and quoting members to make them feel special. Not to mention seeing achronos's beautiful smile everyday! Best job in teh world!

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Maybe not, considering they are always hiring.

None of these jobs are easy, but nothing worth doing is.
