Report: Konami Is A Terrible Place To Work - briefly
(hx) 10:47 PM CEST - Aug,03 2015 - Post a comment / read (4)
The Nikkei report (thanks Kotaku) says that staff are monitored constantly. Their movements are monitored by security cameras. When employees are outside the office too long for their lunch break, they're publicly shamed. Employees that don't deal regularly with outsiders (like PR or sales staff) have randomized email addresses that are changed every few months. Kotaku says emails are switched up like this to prevent headhunting. Maybe the most shocking part of the report, though, is the treatment of game developers deemed unessential. Junior and senior staff alike can be reassigned as security guards, assembly line workers, or cleaners for Konami's fitness clubs. This lines up with a 2013 report from a 40 year-old developer at Konami who was tasked with disassembling old pachinko slot machines at their factory.

Might be a good break perhaps get some freedom away from all the cameras at the HQ :P

If it was the senior developers and designers responsible for the shitwreck that is WinDoze 10 I'd have them all sweeping the fucking floors.

Capitalism.

In all nations, the typical workplace is one of the least free environments anywhere - hell, even prison and the military have some guarantees of human rights that aren't always granted in the workplace.

It's amazing that people actually accept - and some even endorse - this insanity. Konami may be worse than most, but they're far from the only shitty place out there. In the US, workers de facto give up the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Amendment liberties that constitute the bare minimum of a free society every time they go to work.
