With over 10 million registered players worldwide, hundreds of staff and three offices, we thought it was about time to tell the world a little about who we are, what we do and where we are going. To that end, we've created a downloadable company brochure. We hope you enjoy it!

 

 

 

You can download our company brochure as a pdf (2.16M) below:

This is a recent addon to thejagex website.

 

I think its rather interesting. Open the PDF and read up. If I lived in the UK, Id surely work there :thumbsup:

And to think they used to have 1 office with less than 10 staff, now the owner doesn't even care about them or the game.

 

 

 

If you read the PDF, the benefits are rather nice.

 

 

 

-Fresh fruit delivered

 

-Gym membership

 

-Full relaxation room with LAN PCs and latest consoles

 

-Free healthcare

 

-Hell, that just looks like a relaxing place to work

They've done the Gym membership and healthcare since RS got P2P and the fruit thing came before that too.

I want to work for them :shock:

 

 

 

Except that I don't like game programing, and I live in the wrong country :?

Are they seriously based in a tower :shock: !? I've been saying things like "I'm gonna go throw eggs at Jagex Towers" for years, but I just added the "Towers" bit to make it more dramatic like...

 

 

 

Do you know how tall the aforementioned tower and/or towers is/are? That information could be pivotal in planning future attacks...

One of the mods I know normally plays Runescape during his lunch break.

 

 

 

Was an interesting prospectus, nice to know what their working environment is like.

Yes, but, still. If your a core game designer, you will know every aspect of everything.

 

Hardcore training, all the tips and tricks, probably on a super lag free connection because you could be playing on the a server located right next to you.

Adding onto the super lag free connection to the server next to you... the computers as well. They said they're some of the best computers.. and those computers are the ones used to design and make every part of the game.. running it.. no problem.

the trick is to balance all of these methods to get 99 and either play real life or train another skill while farming.

While we're drooling over fast internet connections, I think I'll add this link in : http://www.thelocal.se/7869/20070712/ . Imagine playing XBL on that. As for the Towers and the job, Andrew gave up a job some people would kill for(probably until they realized what part of the community was like, and then they'd kill to get out, I geuss).

like most businesses, i'd hate having to work at a room with 100s of people talking, and typing. the benefits could only please some members, or people that don't like working at the gym so much.

Person on the left, middle up is working onf acial expressions. Person beside her is watching porn? Person beside that is away, so either that's his background, or some upcoming wallpaper. Person on the VERY bottom left is designing a bulding of some sort, I think. And ols-school tower. Looks zamarocky.

They were selected as one of the Sunday Time's Best Companies to Work For for a reason, you know. :) I wouldn't mind working there.

Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall:
