I worked as external QA for a few years. (Currently I'm  in-house QA so it's a bit less evilll). Bug quotas were regular thing there - on ALL projects - no matter if small mobile Game or AAA from big studio. It was always the same. Amount of bugs had influence on monthly mark "hey you written a lot of bugs, u got 5!" "Not enough bugs? 2 - be careful you might lose your job" Enough good monthly marks - there is a chance to get a bit more money. QA salary is ridiculous. I'm in better situation than before but .feck. I want to cry every time I think about state of qa in industry. Of course it's not all bad. But external qa... Security was a bit ridiculous thing there - always in the morning there was a line of 50 people on the floor waiting to get scanned with metal detector by security officer. All food containers needed to be transparent. Small wallet? Need to open and show everything from the inside. That was humiliation. Every single morning and evening. Imagine being a woman during her period. Work itself was sometimes process of humaliation itself.  I remember with panic searching for smol gemotery clippings or just looking at mobile games on big screen just to see few pixels in wrong place. Just to not be tester without bug at the end of the day.  even if we wanted to give feedback - we were usually ignored because our job was producing bugs like crazy. Tester with biggest amount of bugs had a chance to get contract, so maybe a chance for living like a normal human. And maybe a chance for being proud of their work. New people all the time because the ones who work for a longer time are burned out and do everything to escape. training new people and searching bugs? Oh! We had access to big sheet with all people from project and amount of bugs they reported. Oh fun. And important thing - company didn't cared who joins the team. We had people who had problems with using pc. Or understanding English. All of this was hell. I was placed in position of leading smoll project without well, any training - and no financial gain - just hope for maybe getting promotion in few months. Maybe. Financial situation of qa is bad. even in in-house QA isn't treated as a serious position - it's always a jumpstart to gamedev. Or introduction to being QA for apps and other industries that pay QA livable wage. it always feels like there is glass ceiling over me. No matter how far I will go, there is no chance to be QA and say it with proud. If I want to develop I need to change industry. Oh I'm sorry for my English, it's 2 am in Poland and my QA rant mode started thanks to your wideo. I'm adding new things to this comment all the time because memories and emotions are coming back.  I'm so glad that you touched QA situation. My heart really suffers but now wants justice.
