What a lot of people might not realize is that a significant number of people work at these tech giants to boost their resume and then they jump ship to company with a much better work life balance, maybe to join a startup, or to do something they’re more passionate about.
This is known at Apple, Google, Meta, etc. and so those companies have adjusted their expectations. I did a stint at a prestigious Fortune 500 and their director position was much lower on the org chart than you might expect but the work is grueling. When you left the company had your back and you’re immediately more attractive when on a job hunt.
Stardew Valley is co-op and it’s farming/life sim.
There’s a lot of factory and resource management games that are co-op and not intense. I personally recommend Satisfactory.
If you’re looking for some combat without stress, Elder Scrolls Online is very co-op friendly.
