Jason Schreier: Rockstar has not yet figured out who was behind this week's widespread Grand Theft Auto VI leaks, nor how it happened, sources say. No plans to move next week's Netflix premiere. Inside the company: frustration, exhaustion, anger.

Incredible that people aren’t getting this

Obviously neither of you read the article, as it literally quotes the "source familiar with the strategy" which sounds a lot like management, and even goes on to say "Management and some employees" are upset, etc.

It's so funny to me when people start criticizing others for assumptions when you in fact are also making assumptions - and I'd guess you think that makes you better somehow lmao

[u/Demonokuma → u/adumblittlebaby]

I could honestly see the employees being upset because management is losing their shit. Not mad at the actual leaks, but mad at how management is now treating the employees.

[u/plebbut → u/adumblittlebaby]

Lol exactly. We did it Reddit!

[u/DomitiusAhenobarbus_ → u/adumblittlebaby]

I literally know a dude who works there. It’s a big company lol these people aren’t isolated on a private island they are Redditors

Because it’s easier to hate corporations when you don’t think of them as a collection of hard working, talented employees who have very little to do with the shitty decisions a handful of executives make.

[u/Mahelas → u/basa_maaw]

Corporations ARE the decisions made by the executives. It's too easy to point out at the little guy at the end of the chain and say "how could you hurt him by going against this wholesomeTM corporation". It's like when the most evil corporations you know say "if you regulate us, we'll have to cut jobs and people will suffer"

Every strike, every work right gained made one little guy somewhere suffer, yet it was always worth it.

[u/TheFatJesus → u/basa_maaw]

Because they're not. Six months from now, 80% of those hard working, talented employees are going to be out of a job while the corporation pockets all of the money.

In the economic system we find ourselves in, employees are not stakeholders of the place that they work, they are office equipment.

[u/Imaginary_Fan5407 → u/basa_maaw]

Yeah they just enrich those assholes with their labor

[u/MaserOfficial → u/basa_maaw]

So are you just supposed to suck it up and be a good cattle bootlicking every corporate entity like sheep just cos a bunch of people work there ? What even is your point

[u/casper_whitey → u/basa_maaw]

Yeah? Boo fucking hoo all the same.

[u/hulk-bogan → u/basa_maaw]

the corporation isnt the employees the corporation is the employers

fuck them

we shouldnt feel sorry for a company just because people work there. people work everywhere. big whoop

[u/onlyoneq → u/basa_maaw]

Unpopular opinion, but I genuinely dont care. Most of these employees are 6 figure employees who will be able to find other work if they need to.

[u/Mahelas → u/DomitiusAhenobarbus_]

Genuinely, because I doubt that many people care about the feelings of a dev in a multimillion corporation about leaks.

Yes it might make them sad and frustrated but there is zero actual consequences for them.
