A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Yeah. I've heard so many horror stories from the VFX contractors now. Sound like a hellacious job to work currently

A lot of creative jobs are like this. Game development is incredibly predatory. Noodle has a fantastic video.

I always upvote Noodle. This specific video led me to leave my workplace abuse as a dev, and just about just about everyone else I worked with left as well once they saw people leaving. We're all much happier for it. I wish we had a union, because I loved those people and wanted to work with them forever, but we all had to move on.
