    Would not recommend Niantic. Did some contracting for them, was a mess.

      hi yds. thanks for the input. imo Tsn is saying
      demand underestimated and *minimal adjustments made*,
      money earned but *product still understaffed*.

      It is ok and common to underestimate, but IMO it's not ok for the other things.

      Calm down Niantic bro.

      As I said i was a contractor. A lot of this is second hand from FTEs. There are some tools used to manipulate PGO that were labeled Ingress. It's impossible to go into more details without outing myself.

      While yes it's impossible to predict the initial popularity, I'm talking about staffing issues 3,6, + months later.

    Interviewer: So, tell me about yourself?

    Candidate:

    "I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was.
    To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause...
    I will travel across the land, searching far and wide,
    Teach Pokemon to understand, the power that's inside.
    Pokemon...gotta catch 'em all!!
    It's you and me...
    I know it's my destiny"
