Back in May, Double Fine employees petitioned for a union. Two weeks later, that petition was withdrawn. What happened? https://kotaku.com/inside-the-failed-fight-to-unionize-one-of-gamings-most-idealized-studios-2000742755

When WOTC unionizes, we do it with style. One of our own members helped design these metal pins of our logo, and our supporters are proud to wear them at work!

I think the thing that makes me the most mad about the last few years is that we're watching the ruling class voluntarily take the american entertainment industry and throw it into a garbage can.

This morning, the D&D team and Magic's Studio X informed our leadership of our intent to unionize. We love the games we make and the work we do, and unionizing is how we protect that work.

He destroyed careers, he destroyed peoples’ livelihoods. I hope he sleeps well with his golden parachute knowing he’s had a major hand in turning the US animation industry into the desert it is today.

GOLDEN PARACHUTE (n.): An agreement wherein an employee, typically an executive, receives substantial compensation in exchange for the termination of their employment as a result of a merger or takeover. This allows incompetent ghouls to handsomely profit off of running companies into the ground.

As we enter a new quarter, time for an update on games industry layoffs. As you can see here we're well past 50k people known to be impacted since 2020 in over 800 incidents. with 3 months to go, 2026 could end as the worst year on record. 55% of known layoff waves in 2026 have unknown headcounts.

Aujourd'hui, UVW-CWA exprime sa solidarité avec les Travailleuses.eurs d'Ubisoft Montréal-Ubisoft Workers of Montreal (TUM-UWM), qui se battent pour préserver le droit de leurs collègues à un milieu de travail hybride. Le retour au bureau est l'une des nombreuses politiques que la direction met en œuvre sans consulter les travailleuses et travailleurs qu'elles touchent le plus: les parents, les employé·e·s en situation de handicap, les travailleuses et travailleurs qui ont acheté une maison à l'extérieur d'un rayon de déplacement raisonnable, celles et ceux qui ont déménagé dans un autre pays pour conserver leur emploi, celles et ceux qui s'épanouissent en télétravail, et bien d'autres. En imposant des mesures brutales de réduction des coûts et en revenant sur des ententes antérieures, la direction de l'entreprise doit être tenue responsable du prix humain de ses décisions.

Les travailleuses et travailleurs du TUM-UWM mènent la charge dans notre lutte collective pour un travail digne et la justice économique. Si vous travaillez chez Ubisoft Montréal, joignez-vous à vos collègues pendant les heures de pause et veillez à ce que la voix des travailleuses et travailleurs d'Ubisoft soit entendue à la table.

Today, UVW-CWA stands in solidarity with Travailleuses.eurs d'Ubisoft Montréal-Ubisoft Workers of Montreal (TUM-UWM) fighting to preserve their coworkers’ right to a hybrid workplace. Return to Office is one of many policies management implements without the input of workers it affects the most: parents, employees with disabilities, workers who purchased homes outside of a reasonable commute radius, workers who moved countries to maintain their job, workers who thrive in a remote environment, and many others. By enacting brutal cost-cutting measures and going back on previous agreements, company leadership must be held accountable for the human price of their decisions.

The organized workers of TUM-UWM are leading the charge in our collective struggle for dignified work and economic justice. If you are a worker at Ubisoft Montréal, join your colleagues during break hours and ensure that Ubisoft workers’ voices are represented at the table.
