A group of Activision Blizzard employees calling itself the ABK Workers Alliance has rejected the company’s decision to employ the law firm WilmerHale to conduct a review of the company’s policies and procedures. In a letter shared with IGN, the group told CEO Bobby Kotick that his delayed response to employees following a lawsuit alleging widespread sexual harassment and discrimination at the company “did not meaningfully address” employee demands, and that WinterHale’s pre-existing relationship with Activision creates a conflict of interest that means it cannot conduct an impartial review.

Activision Blizzard Hires Notorious Union-Busting Firm WilmerHale — Promethean

Activision has called in the experts to put down the claims of sexual harassment and discrimination and stop the protests by workers. Activision has hired WilmerHale. WilmerHale has been hired to “review” Activision’s policies. Wilmerhale’s own site advertises its expertise as “union awareness and avoidance.” They use attorneys and experts to develop “union avoidance strategies and union organizational campaigns.” WilmerHale was used extensively by Amazon to spread anti-union misinformation and propaganda to “sow doubts about the unionization drive.” WilmerHale was the firm that killed unionization efforts at an Amazon center in Bessemer, Alabama.

“Ubisoft Singapore has always been kind of known [internally] to be one of the worst Ubisoft studios in terms of culture,” said one former developer at the publisher of Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry. “People would visit [from other studios] and be like, ‘What the fuck is wrong here?’”

In November 2020, Ubisoft Singapore managing director Hugues Ricour was removed from his post following a leadership audit sparked by a Gamasutra report of abuse and misconduct throughout Ubisoft. Ricour had been accused of sexual harassment by multiple sources, according to the report, and anyone who complained faced workplace repercussions that went ignored by Ubi’s HR department.
