Another company that needs a good ass-kicking...

...would be E.A., according to the spouse of one if its employees. To sum that article up, E.A. has been working some employees 12 hours a day, 7 days a week—without any kind of compensation (i.e., overtime pay or comp time). This is ridiculous! I know how working hours like that and never having time off to recuperate can adversely affect the work one does, believe me. And, the thing is, it's not like E.A. is strapped for cash. Would it kill them to just hire some more people? Sure, maybe it might eat into their profit margins, but at least they wouldn't be the video game industry equivalent of slave drivers.
