Article can be found here: http://www.ongamers.com/articles/esgn-having-financial-difficulties-unable-to-pay-employees/1100-1581/ To sum up briefly, it seems like they burnt through their clauf money and now can't afford to pay their staff who are considering strike action. The article also says that some casters and players weren't paid their winnings as well company restructures and redundancies. Also a brief mention of some staff not even being on a contract. Seems to be quite the mess they've landed themselves in. They brought it on themselves if they plan on working for such people. No offense but certain companies/organizations should have been weeded out a long time ago. | ||

A contract is one thing, but your ability to sue and get any kind of return is another at the same time. | ||

Too common that they crash and seems like getting paid regularly is actually hard to achieve only true if its a brand new start up. if EG had a job opening, i wouldnt think oh this shit is not real cause they've been in the business for a long time btw these start up are especially bad because they are basically preying on people who want to work in their "dream industry" and basically would do anything to be in it. and because of that, these scumbags can do shit like oh we'll do a contract later, u can just work for free until then | ||
