Activision vs. CA UPDATE Employees Planning Walk Out

Pretty uninspiring news coming out today. Blizzard perpetuates a “frat-boy” culture according to the complaint filed by California Department of Fair Employment and Housing. Its hard to believe considering how supportive the forums and community is…

Blizzard is known for paying their employees garbage wages. Pay for garbage and that’s what you get . . . a bunch of sweaty neanderthals instead of intelligent adults.

I like how people are still surprised after that “free hong kong” incident. They don’t care about human rights, but yea… a healthy work environment for female employees is where they are gonna make their stand…lmao

BS until the court case is decided. Anyone can allege anything.

This will be interesting. I wonder what proof the accusers have.

A state won’t file a case unless there’s evidence. But you go ahead and think they’re innocent. I’ll continue to think they’re guilty as sin.

So no one has ever been wrongly charged or wrongly convicted? I have no opinion about the guilt or innocence in this case, but a “they were charged so they must be guilty” attitude is a sad place to be. Innocent until proven guilty is the only thing that makes our justice system work. As we move farther away from that concept, we move to a much more dangerous place.

No one know if these allegations are true. Quite pretending like they are.

How did you get that from what I wrote? I said a state won’t bring charges without evidence.

As I said before, I can reach any conclusion I like. You seem to think this is all made up. That’s fine. You’re also allowed to think whatever you like.

Well done mate, someone had the same idea as me this morning.

I doubt hes thinking its all made up.

Its ok to be skeptical when theres a lot of money involved.

every company gives lip service to the oppression hierarchy but doesn’t actually live up to it; it’s not a big deal
