 nostr:npub1ctgamvlku5zuclep0au3efq8u9l6zqlfdjvag378gnuu5n0fcdgq5gsdrl yeah. The model for contractors in games are often low pay and even zero contract hours in some places too.

And in the scenario at Naughty Dog, laid off with no severance or protections.

I've seen it used as a safeguard for the company not to take on the employment risk. And they get away with it far too often.

I'm not 100% against contractors (I am one at the moment by choice). But like you say there needs to be remuneration and compensation, and a high day rate to compensate.
