Indeed, their guesses were right on the mark. Virtual World Corporation acted swiftly. Shortly after the announcement was made, gaming companies that had made the headlines realized a mass migration was in progress. Nearly all of the gaming companiesâ employees took chartered flights provided by Virtual World Corporation, heading straight to Flame Nation.
According to the information disclosed by the media, this applied to both domestic and international employees under the umbrella of Virtual World Corporation: everyone had to work in Flame Nation. This was a non-negotiable condition. After the mergers, these gaming companies would dissolve their individual distribution departments, and game distribution would be managed by a specialized department within Virtual World Corporation.
For those willing to move to Flame Nation, Virtual World Corporation would directly assist with their familyâs accommodation, living expenses, and even a generous relocation allowance, as well as finding jobs for family members. However, if you were unwilling, your only option was to resign. Virtual World Corporation would offer three monthsâ worth of salary as severance pay.NoÌv(el)B\\jnn
Itâs uncertain how many people around the globe are working at high-tech companies or are aspiring to do so. Yet, not every bright college graduate gets the chance to work at these multinational tech giants, let alone a firm like Virtual World Corporation, which boasts the best employee benefits worldwide.
The employee benefits package offered by Virtual World Corporation indeed stands out as the highest worldwide. Consequently, breaking into this company is a challenging task. Although Virtual World Corporation has always embedded humanity into its management, this time they were quite firm, and very few people wanted to resign.
Putting aside the strong and attractive benefits offered, the provision for family accommodation and work security, coupled with the relocation allowance, took away many lingering concerns. Therefore, even though the news stirred quite a wave among the foreign media, it failed to ignite much uproar within Virtual World Corporation.
After Mikeâs televised speech, people around the world were taken aback by such a magnanimous act. Goddammit, it was suspected that only a prodigal like Finn Lewis could concoct such an arrangement. This was something beyond the reach of other business individuals.
Any company has to consider its profits and other aspects, but those under Finn Lewis donât have to worry about these. All they need to keep in mind is whether Finn Lewis is in a good mood. If he is, anything is possible.
If there were any employees who had been hesitant, Mikeâs televised speech left no room for anyone to dither. All the employees followed the company and relocated to Flame Nation. And believe it or not, a significant fraction of the companyâs janitors and security personnel moved to Flame Nation.
Almost all the security personnel came over because those hired by Virtual World Corporationâs overseas branches were mostly young retired soldiers from the North Federation. Only a few were married. These people, having no other skills, could only work as security guards.
Who would want to give up such a job with such a high salary? More importantly, the provision for finding jobs for family members and covering relocation costs was a major relief for many. Donât assume the North Federation is a paradise where everyone has a house to live in, a car to drive. Though it might seem that way to many, the reality for an average person in the North Federation might not be better than an ordinary person in Flame Nation. Not everything in the North Federation is as rosy as many people believe.
So, many just came over because the company offered to find jobs for their family members. After all, changing the place of living is not a big deal. With so many colleagues from the same company, communication should not be a problem. Moreover, communication issues could be easily resolved with the help of a secret weapon â the Eve Morrison mobile phone produced by Virtual World Corporation.
The translation capability of the Eve Morrison mobile phone had already been tapped into by many. This feature was not separately mentioned by Virtual World Corporation, nor had it been promoted. But many users discovered that when Eve Morrison system was translating, it was extremely accurate, even comparable to professional translators. But not everyone could afford professional translators.
