French union report alleges mismanagement at Life is Strange developer Don't Nod


A report by the French video game workers union has raised concerns from staff at Life is Strange and Vampyr developer …

"In a studio where each project erratically follows another, time and long-term vision required for the employees' welfare is disappearing," the STJV wrote, "leading to more stress among workers and creating boreout/burnout situations by leaving us all waiting for decisions to be taken by management. When contacted by Eurogamer, Don't Nod confirmed it had seen the STJV's report and was now engaged with employee representatives and holding company-wide Q&A sessions to gather information and address concerns. The report goes on to claim that critical success Jusant "failed to meet the commercial expectations" of company bosses, who then dispersed its team to other projects over a period of two months where staff were "left in the dark about their future".
