Responding here as we were going off-topic in that thread.
Blizzard is probably one of the more difficult to get a development job at, and they're far from rainbows and sunshine. A friend of mine there is an IT Manager, and I get all the horror stories that go on.
NCSoft is a bit easier to get a job at, but NCSoft has the black touch with most games they produce (Aion for example).
