Does a QA tester position open any future career opportunities?

I've seen QA tester job listings at many different game developers and I've always wanted to be a part of the gaming industry. But a lot of these job listings are only temporary employment and I'm afraid the sacrifice that accompanies these positions might outweigh the reward. Does having a QA tester position help further my skills and experience as a competent/applicable person for a game development position higher up the chain? #video-games #game-development #video-game-development #gaming-industry #video-game-production #personal-development #career-details
