Comment Re:Yeah, well (Score 1) 37

Well yeah, coding tests in general are fucking stupid and pointless. If someone has a resume and prior job experience, let me talk to their former boss. If someone is a new grad, let me talk to their professor. But if I HAVE to give a test I am giving someone a one day project. I want to see if they can accomplish a task and I really don't care how efficient their leetcode game is. At the end of the day, results are what pay the bills. Not how clever your code syntax is.

Comment Kids these days don't know how to unionize (Score 2) 151

The modern group think in the VFX and game industry is "If we unionize, they can't take away our jobs". As if the simple act of unionization prevents and employer from laying people off. But unionization only works when the union has leverage. The Halifax studio joined the Canadian CWA union which is a digital media union. The problem is that union has no representation with any of Ubisofts other offices in Canada. So CWA is unable to apply any pressure what-so-ever to Ubisoft. This venture was doomed to fail from the beginning.
