The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing has filed an update to its lawsuit against Activision Blizzard, accusing the company of stonewalling the state regulator and shredding documents relevant to the its investigation.

La justice californienne étend la base des litiges à l’encontre de Blizzard Entertainment dans le cadre d’un procès au sujet de discriminations et de harcèlement dont subiraient des collaborateurs. Par ailleurs, la justice accuse Blizzard de contrecarrer son enquête, notamment par la destruction de documents relatifs à celle-ci.

My take on Activision Blizzard: If the company wants to change, it should start by firing a significant portion of its thoroughly polluted executive team.

On July 28, hundreds of Activision Blizzard employees gathered at the gates of Blizzard’s campus under the hot Irvine, California sun. Many were seeing each other for the first time in months. Many others were meeting for the first time, having been brought together by what has become an extraordinary week of direct action.

Throughout that week, IGN has spoken to seven past and present Activision Blizzard employees, building a clearer picture not just of its deeply troubled working culture, but the immediate aftermath of that culture becoming public – and how those at the company have organised to try and effect positive change amid worldwide outrage.

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.

Activision-Blizzard is working with a union-busting firm, “Wilmerhale” - the same one that Amazon is using.

Il apparaît que le cabinet d’avocats Wilmerhale choisi par Activision-Blizzard pour gérer en interne auprès des salariés les accusations de harcèlement et de discrimination en réponse au récent procès à son encontre a notamment pour spécialité la lutte contre le syndicalisme, empêchant la création de cellules syndicales au sein d’entreprises clientes.
