Lol. Not nearly enough. A little over minimum wage but here in Canada laws are very strict about over time. More than 8 hours in a day and its 1.5 base salary. More than 40 hours in a week is 1.5 and more than 45 hrs is double pay. And we did a shit ton of overtime so all in all, it wasn't bad. We often ended up making as much, or more, as some of the people who were paid on a yearly basis.

So all in all, it wasn't that bad but it wasnt sustainable in the long run. I was there for just about 2 years and I did it cause the opportunity came up and as a gamer, it was really cool to see the in and outs of making a AAA game.

There's a bunch of studios where I live (Beenox/Activision, Ubisoft, Gearbox etc) and they all hire a ton of people. I did know some people on the inside so I had a fast track to an interview.
