You can feel the suffering in the games, though.

Holy crap, I can't believe those people make less than half of what I make. I wonder what the industry standard pay is.

Sadly, this is pretty common in the gaming industry.

Everyone knows that unless you are upper management in almost all entertainment industry your pay is crap.

Yeah, the people who actually make the games get paid absolute crap.
The VA strikes kinda piss me off b/c the VA's already make way more than the employees actually writing the code and QA testing while being no where near as important for a game's success as the game play / lack of glitches/problems, and then have gall to demand more. If they fought for the low level grunts working painful crunch hours to get raises, I'd respect said movements more.

I try to avoid buying from the worst companies, but it's hard to tell sometimes if a company is "good" or we just haven't heard anything yet about how they also abuse their employees, too.

then quit
