Just fold the company

So much for "I just Work here"

Is this just over their RTO policy or is there more to it?

 

[Roman Empire]

Ubisoft won't ever become better with the Guillemot in power. They'll never let go of that bone.

These people probably already know they are being laid off anyway. There is no simple solution for Ubisoft other than going under and the Guillemot go make ruckus on some other venture. These people are like parasites.

Nah I like the z flip more

Who knows, dude, game dev is so locked up in NDAs and hush culture that we're always left speculating.

This seems like a standard labour dispute action, but the question is, what lead to this?

 

[HDinRed]

Protesting restructuring when the alternative is to shut down and everyone lose their jobs? Smart!

 

[DeepEnigma]

Pretty sure these people know that decades of Guillemot mismanagement has just been swept under the rug and they're being fucked over as a result. Wouldn't be surprised if they know they're done already.

When you let the wolves into the henhouse...

 

[xenosys]

Have they even got 1200 employees left?

Ubisoft still has over 15k employees.

Seems like a mix of management going back on agreed upon RTO/Remote Work mandates and Ubisoft being in the process of stepping on the fingers of people they threw overboard while their shiny new Tencent backed legal entity company that owns their IP floats away with all the value.
