One thing you learn quickly when you unionize:it’s never just you and your coworkers.
It’s workers supporting workers, across studios and borders.

✊🌀We stand with Ubisoft employees in France and beyond opposing unilateral layoffs, project cancellations, and enforced return-to-office policies pushed without meaningful social dialogue
Creative work needs respect, stability, and worker participation — not top-down mandates!!!!

Layoffs directly after launch is a normalized part of the dev cycle. But who's responsible for that? Not the actual game workers.
It's time we take our power back.

NEW: ProbablyMonsters—which we reported on last year for alleged mismanagement and waves of unannounced layoffs—is still seemingly laying off employees.
Some worked on Ire: A Prologue, which CEO Harold Ryan said last year was meant to drive interest in a new franchise.

There's a saying in organizing that "every unionized worker carries an ununionized worker on their back." We're doing our part! 💪❤️
Last repost is a great example of why a union is statistically proven to raise conditions for everyone, whether they're in a union or not: because union members OFTEN vote to make their privileges & knowledge open to all.
It's union members who do that work, learn those skills, set that up for you!
