SimpleG Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 https://gamedaily.biz/article/1478/telltale-20-we-cannot-right-the-wrongs-of-the-former-company "We’re currently working with several former Telltale people on a freelance basis and will be opening up full-time positions sometime in January. As we’ve previously said, we’re taking a measured approach to growth and are focused on bringing in the right people at the right time in production.” The freelance approach is something that has rubbed some former Telltale employees the wrong way. As noted by Krause on Twitter, “If this new Telltale really wants to bring back the studio and are genuine in their intents, then I honestly hope it works out. But hiring former devs on a freelance basis in the most expensive part of the country doesn’t really encourage me that much.” When GameDaily pushed on the freelance scenario, Ottilie pushed back: “We are focused on hiring the right talent for each role - people committed to making great games in the style for which Telltale is renowned. " Hiring the staff as freelancers is really shitty, game devs really need to unionize to stop this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Employers love that word. "Freelance" is corporate speak for "don't have to pay their taxes." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
