Ex Activision QA employee here - It does not get anything done faster, and it burns out the devs and QA alike so more mistakes are made. It’s always about hitting dates on time for shareholder profits, the C-suite people in charge do not give a shit about releasing a quality game.

Spam texts have decreased but I still get 2-3 spam calls every day, and they always leave a 4 second long voicemail consisting of nothing. Incredibly annoying having to constantly clean those out.
