What People Are Saying About Rockstar Games
-
Sustainable Pace: Following the 2018 crunch controversy, leadership introduced earlier planning, better tooling, and policy changes, and multiple employees said conditions had improved by 2020. GTA VI’s approach was described as launching with a tighter initial scope and updating over time to ease late‑stage surges.
-
Flexible Scheduling: Post‑2018 initiatives included flexitime and scheduling adjustments intended to curb sustained overtime and allow staff to offset extra hours. Day‑to‑day hours outside peak milestones were described as more predictable during 2020–2022.
-
Adequate Staffing: Some quality‑assurance roles were converted from contract to full‑time in certain locations, which was seen internally as a positive shift. This change aimed to stabilize teams that had historically borne heavier loads.
