Happens to me too, every single day. I mean, I don't lose much work, but it still crashes all the time. I can't tell if it's my PC (GTX960, i5 6500), but it shouldn't be. Same scenes in Blender are smooth and never crash.

The worst thing is that I have a craving for Blender, but if I ever want to work in this industry, I'll have to stick with Max.

If, as you say, this happens to you 'all the time' - there is something deeply wrong with you.

i increment save whenever i make a meaningful change that i can't easily undo. i also give it a name referring to whatever i did so i can potentially go back later and know what it is i'm actually opening

to be fair in big projects 3 days is nothing
