So You Want to Work in the Game Industry?
Well, it’s not all bad…just aim for an exec position and not one of the worker bees that we have seen can get axed at a moment’s notice. When companies fall on hard times they cut the production side of things but the suits that run the joint keep collecting bonuses. Bottom line good, bonus will be good too.
Activision’s Kotick received a whopping $5M in bonus money but I guess it’s hard to argue with the revenue that WoW brings in.
An interesting one on the list was Riccitiello and his $625K in “incentives” after the company posted a $641M loss in Q4 of this fiscal year. I’m pretty sure EA let go of some people in light of the losses. Way to go John.
