Just curious - is such toxic culture more common in game-dev companies? Some of us would remember the EA Spouse story [1] - one of the first such public disclosures. Have there been any studies done of the prevalence of such culture across different software dev teams?

I would expect that to be true of any industry that people are desperate to work in - especially one that hires mainly grads who don't have any experience of what a "normal" workplace should look like.
