100 days ago, the group A Better Ubisoft gave a list of demands to the company’s leadership in an effort to improve a toxic work environment. This was following several reports from within various Ubisoft locations about myriad workplace issues from abusive management to sexual harassment.
Today, fed up without a real response, A Better Ubisoft is asking the public for help.
A Better Ubisoft Group Launches Public Petition to Force Company Action
The group’s social media account dropped a Google Forms link that anyone can fill out, in an effort to petition Ubisoft to have this desired conversation. You can check out today’s tweet below:
100 days ago we signed our open letter and set out our four key demands. None of our demands have been met. So today we’re launching a new petition, open for ALL our supporters to signhttps://t.co/dqmQV96FOm

The demands are as follows (directly quoted):
- Stop promoting and moving known offenders from studio to studio, team to team with no repercussions. This cycle needs to end.
- We want a collective seat at the table, to have a meaningful say in how Ubisoft as a company moves forward from here.
- Cross-industry collaboration, to agree on a set of ground rules and processes that all studios can use to handle these offenses in the future.
- This collaboration must heavily involve employees in non-management positions and union representatives.
And for those of you in our readership interested in checking it out, here’s a link to the survey. In contrast Activision, which has become a flashpoint for events like this, has responded to the matter quite differently.
