Proletariat Studios has now become the third studio owned by Activision Blizzard that has filed to unionize., the Communications Workers of America union announced the planned unionization effort, saying that “a supermajority of workers at Activision Blizzard’s Proletariat studio has announced that they are forming the Proletariat Workers Alliance/CWA and have filed for a union representation election with the National Labor Relations Board.
“Activision leadership’s attempts to prevent its workers from joining together in a union have not only been a waste of time and money, they have caused further damage to morale and underlined the company’s reputation for creating a toxic, hostile work environment. Microsoft has shown that even the largest American corporations can choose a different path and allow workers to freely and fairly choose whether or not they want union representation.
