"I worked for SCEA for a time and while the company was a fun company to work for, and most of my coworkers were wonderful people, my manager made the place hostile and demoralizing. I lasted longer than anyone else who held my position before me, but the company's insistence on keeping terrible managers made it impossible to stay at and grow in."
