TEDIOUS TASKSSpeaking about game testing services many people would think it is like playing a favorite game and getting fun. It could be but for one aspect: testing a game is testing a definite part of it for very many times for a couple of days, weeks or even months. This is a repetitive action that demands attentiveness and stamina. Take into account that a game tester doesn’t choose a game. With all above said, do you still think that working in game testing companies is an exciting routine? However, tedious tasks concern not only gaming industry.

LOW WAGESWhen communicating with gamers involved in game testing routine, you will likely hear how little they are paid for their work.

Experienced professionals get a bit more than a minimum wage per hour, this is actually what make them boil over! They are angry about that harsh reality, yet only few of them decide to quit. Frankly speaking, the problem of low wages concerns not only the workers of game testing services industry.

HARSH WORKING ENVIRONMENTNormally an ordinary business day lasts from 9 am to 6 pm, but not for game testers. The last weeks and days before a new game release are called “critical”.

These are days of overtime job, but according to some experienced testers, game testing service of that sort is not always fairly paid. It is indeed difficult to keep a healthy lifestyle while working in the game testing companies. It sounds like a reason to change a job.
