Mike Morhaime.

Mike Morhaime was the CEO for a time but then he and his wife Amy (they have a gorgeous daughter Olivia) went on to start Dreamhaven, a new gaming company and I just know they will make it better than they did Blizzard. But if I'm not mistaken, once Mike left, it was J. Allen Brack that became CEO/President.

Typically 1-3 year(s).

I started there through a job agency and proved myself and was offered the job as a full time Employee.

I was able to get a 7 am to 4 pm spot I believe seeing as I had a young child in school and because I was told I could not drive at dark with my vision but I cannot remember the term that they gave it. then they had the 4pm to12 am, and then the 12 midnight/am to 7 am.

when I started through the job company I cannot remember how much I was getting because the company who got me the job there was getting $2.00 from them for every person they sent their way, and then when they hired me on full time I think it was $10.00 per hour I was getting.

I believe 18

Yes they do. They even have a program that providing you have been there long enough that you would qualify for help with getting assistance to pay for paying for continuing your education. I was actually in process of going after my associates degree in Business specializing in Programming so that I could learn to start coding and programming for them and become more of an asset to them. Once you finish one quarter, take it to your team leader and show it to them and they would see it, sign it and then send a copy of it to your school, then leave it with the team leader there at the office.

Depends how much time you have off accrued off and if you are able to talk the Team Manager into letting you take the time off during the time you want to. The reason is because if there is a big release about to come out, forget it. They will need all hands on the floor to help with the players who like to harass the other players and play their multi-toons and put the ban hammer down on them. P.S. They do not (the higher ups) like it much whenever you refer to it as 'bring down the BANHAMMER on 'Fluffkins' for multi farming or things like that. I always thought it was funny as hell but they don't! Always ask before and after any upcoming or after a new release and then you are more than likely to get your wish granted.

I never wanted to go, but I had to leave Blizzard because it was at the advisement of my neurologist who has since retired. I have MS and apparently those in charge did not know how to deal with nor did they seem to want to either. The head of HR at the time, Michelle Secrest, was awesome about it though as we have daughters that are almost the same age. She told me that I could always come back at anytime and that I would just have to reapply like anyone else and be patient. She said it would be as if I never left. That my time accrual, benefits and everything else would kick back in. I kept my end of the bargain on things. But they aren't.

I did when I was there but now I wish I would get them to keep their word and let me back in! I've been taking online classes and want to stretch my wings!

If you count going from plain jane Game Master then up to Game Master II and then Game Master III then yes. After that I was made an Account Administration where someone would look into the accounts that may have been reported as hacked and needed to be investigated and possibly restored. They also handled things such as proof of notification when someone was to verify that they were the actual owner of the account. The technical stuff, basically.

If I were to be rehired by Blizzard again, I should be eligible for benefits straight away.
