I work in QA since over 10 years, and Ive worked for EA and Deep SIlver before. Gaming QA is the biggest joke. You get paid fuckall, have to work unpaid overtime, shitty temp contracts and 90-95% of bugs get ignored. Its not the QAs fault, its always management... Good example. I was offered the senior test manager role for the new project Tropico 7. They offered me half of what I make in normal software development, 0 homeoffice, giant 1-room office, no benefits - this was 1 year ago, during corona hightimes. AND they wanted me to also do IT for them. lol
