I hate to say it, but like the other commenter, these aren’t layoffs because they want line go up, they’re layoffs because they literally don’t have the money to pay for that many people. Ubisoft is rightfully circling the drain, it’s unavoidable that those people’s jobs will be lost.
Worth mentioning apparently the CEO did reduce his salary, but like, I’m not convinced? Just cause you dropped the bag doesn’t mean you didn’t rob the bank
(But also just being a bitch about the rich is cathartic)
I mean, if he’s still living a life his employees can only dream of, he’s still actually being a pile of shit. It’s all pandering until they need to move out of their mansions.
Sell their assets, someone else could do a good AC. Youdont get to be shit and hold all the cards, they dont deserve to keep everything they built at the cost of the livelihoods of their staff.
I think an important fact to keep in mind is that not all Ubisoft offices are unionized, and from what I have seen they are targeting the unionized offices first.

If they need to do layoffs, start at the top
Now why would they go and do something perfectly sensible like that?! They don’t get filthy rich by doing logical things.

So strike now, sue for union busting later.
