$65K for their lowest position? Shit, if I wasn't a white dude I'd be all over trying to get my foot in there (because you know they'd turn me down because I didn't fit their diversity quota. Let's hear it for anti-White racism). That's more than I'm making at my IT job, with 5 years' experience.
Considering is leftist paying leftists, hopefully it will collapse. I would not be surprised if they start letting people go just to cover the extra expenses.
And of course the first to go are white men.
$65k for their bottomfeeders is fucking pathetic. $65k in most states that aren't Commiefornia or New York would easily lead to a middle class life.
Seems like they are admitting that Gamergate was correct in our assertions.
Not sure, it somewhat seems that they want more independence, this does not mean they want to be more ethical. The idea of being ethical has changed, we live in a time line where facts are considered hateful, where crime stats by race can be banned, so ethics in journalism does not mean accurate reporting anymore.
Very true, but a nice big cold war will shift those idle hands into something less despicable than social justice.
What a shame.
It doesn't really matter. The people paying them are on the same side. It's an internal fight really.
The deal they agreed to pretty much guarantees they'll go bankrupt again. Some of these things they agreed to are stupid as fuck.
These guys are so fucking retarded that they're willing to undermine their interests. That 45k could've gone to raises you morons.
That's more than what FMLA gives, what the fuck.
Good. They've hastened their inevitable demise.
Depends on what funds they can attract. Leftists do not care about profit when they are backed by billionaires.
bankruptcy cannot come soon enough!
They had all this already. It was only the work from home they didn't have. This was all to get permission to stay home and not have to relocate to that expensive and violent shithole NYC. It won't be long before they are fired as a whole, so this was only the hastening of their end.
