San Francisco police told Polygon that officers responded to Unity’s San Francisco office “regarding a threats incident.” A “reporting party” told police that “an employee made a threat towards his employer using social media.” The employee that made the threat works in an office outside of California, according to the police statement.

If you’re doing something you love for a company you’re gonna have a bad time.

Are you working something you hate?

A lot of people are fine working what they love for a company, surely there are issues, but not all companies are batshit and ruin their product.

It's not so black and white though. Passion jobs are often exploited because people will put up with it more and there is higher demand for those types of jobs.

Your best bet is to find something that is interesting and nice enough to keep you content and not bored to death but not so enthralling that you feel like working unpaid overtime or what ever. Bonus points if it's paid relatively well.
