Maybe EA should try to find a compromise on the unpaid internship issue? For example, unpaid internships up to a maximum of 2 days/week being considered acceptable with the community?
This would provide additional opportunities for people to skill up, whilst ensuring that these opportunities would still be broadly accessible.
You say “find a compromise” as if this is a big and contentious issue, but I… don’t really see it coming up a lot? I know Kat Woods has recently posted elsewhere about how lots of unpaid internships are being suppressed because random bystanders on the internet object to them, but I just don’t actually see that happening. I would imagine that often management capacity is more of a bottleneck than pay anyway?

(In countries where this is legally allowed)
