More than 2000 current and former Activision Blizzard employees have signed a petition calling the company’s response to the recent discrimination lawsuit “abhorrent and insulting”.
The open letter, first reported by Bloomberg (paywall), hits out at the company’s response to the lawsuit filed last week by California’s Department of Fair Employment and Housing, which alleges multiple female employees were subjected to gender discrimination, sexual harassment and unequal pay.
According to CNN, this letter now has over 2000 signatories – a number that is expected to grow in the coming days.
