"Rockstar Games Faces Backlash Over Return-to-Office Mandate for GTA 6 Developers"

TL;DR Summary
Rockstar Games is facing backlash from its employees and the Independent Workers’ union of Great Britain (IWGB) over its decision to end remote work provisions and mandate a full-time return to the office in April. Employees argue that the move goes against previous promises and could lead to a return of unhealthy working practices, including potential for toxic 'crunch' practices. The IWGB Game Workers Union is advocating for transparency, a healthy workplace culture, and work-life balance, and is urging industry-wide support for better working conditions.
