“Mr. Guillemot and his clique only understand the balance of power”, the tone is set by the Solidaires Informatique union, which calls the employees of Ubisoft Paris to strike this Friday, January 27 and calls in particular for a 10% increase and more. transparency.
Following Yves Guillemot’s statements, a strike call was launched. The union points directly to the management of Ubisoft France and denounces the disempowerment of the co-founder in the face of the difficulties the company is going through: “staff reductions, discreet closures of studios, pressure from management, exhaustion,” the union quotes in a press release. The union assures that the management always asks for more mobilization of the employees, but “without compensation”.
Difficulties for several months.
Through this strike call, Solidaires Informatique demands four demands: an immediate 10% increase for all salaries “to compensate for inflation”, the introduction of a four-day week, more transparency in the evolution of the workforce , as well as a “firm commitment against concealed dismissals and a condemnation against abusive business policies”.
For several months, Ubisoft has been experiencing difficulties. In 2022, Ubisoft failed to rank as high as the company would have liked. Just Dance or Mario & Rabbids did not have the expected success.
