NEW VIDEO — Working at Valve: 'A Fearless Adventure' or 'Lord of the Flies'?
🕑 Added 2023-01-25 14:01:32 +0000 UTCValve claims to have been "boss-free since 1996", but what does that really mean?
We've spoken to 16 current and former employees about the inner workings of one of gaming's most unusual companies.
You may have noticed things have been a little quiet on PMG for a few months now. This will hopefully explain why!

Unfortunately we've received something of a tsunami of aggressive comments from people outside of our typical audience, because we talk about Valve in relation to diversity and BLM. By far the most dislikes we've ever received on a video, as a result. It's quite disheartening, although we're reminding ourselves that we're probably doing the right kind of work if those people find it so frustrating. -Chris

I'm really confused at the dislike ratio. 7.7k likes 1.9k dislikes. It seems like Valve is seriously difficult company to criticize. Keep up the amazing work.

This was incredible, I plan to share it with all my coworkers tomorrow. Thank you for continuing shedding light on these topics and fingers crossed that lawyer doesn't find y'all!

Great video. I hope Valve actually recognizes this piece as what it is and that they give a reply, but I doubt it. Exemplary work, nonetheless.

Amazing! So excited for this.

Very nice! I didn't realize at first that some of the animations I'm looking at aren't by Valve but by Anni. Nice job!

Keep up the great work! I remember the leak of the handbook back in 2012 and have been truly curious about how that plays out in real life.
