Sad =/

Hope you guys land on your feet!

As places look at next years budgets and the gloomy economy there's bound to be more... But after the first of the year or sometime in Dec, much less so I would imagine.

Everyone at Midway should have been looking for jobs months ago. The company is doomed, get the fuck out... no incentive they are paying is worth it, unless you planned on taking a long exotic vacation once you are laid off (that wasn't sarcastic, some people do that). I have friends sticking it out in Austin and they are morons for it.

Jesse Moody

Yep. I got out a long time ago. Thank god for that.

Midway reallllly looks like its in bad shape. Like always I hope those folks land new gigs quick!

We're always hiring experienced staff!

It feels good to be independent right now.

I read about this a long time ago, too bad it never improved since.

One of my office mates got an email from a recruiter today to go work for Midway Chicago. We were all like "WTF?"

LOL! I'm sure it will be a smash hit like the all their other recent ones.
