Looks like Blizzard is still having ongoing retention issues. Forced RTO (return to office) is making things worse; it's a terrible policy, and hopefully ABK (or MS) can scrap it.

A producer at Blizzard has taken to Twitter to express frustration at a series of departures from the World of Warcraft studio, saying the team is making "crisis maps" of what they can and cannot ship due to so many employees leaving.
In a thread earlier this week, Adam "Glaxigrav" lamented that they had lost "*another* person this week," saying that Blizzard "is losing amazing talent because someone in power doesn't listen to the game directors who make his products."

Glaxigrav isn't alone in their frustrations. Senior game designer on World of Warcraft Allison Steele chimed in too, attributing at least some of the recent attrition to Blizzard's forced return-to-office policy, which Glaxigrav notes elsewhere was still set for July as recently as April 6. The mandate was announced back in February, with Activision worker requirements starting this month. The plan is reportedly unpopular internally.
