There's evidence that Ubisoft hasn't improved it's work culture in the last year since it's allegations.
Until there's firings at all levels, nothing will improve.
Indeed.
I said this somewhere else online, but there needs to be three things that occur in order to
try to
fix this issue:
1. A complete termination of the executive team with no severance. There are only two options with the executives. They either genuinely did not know, which makes them beyond incompetent, or they didn't care, which makes them unethical with the responsibility their position entails.
2. Complete and absolute scorched earth on the entire HR staff. I work in HR. I know how it works in most companies, especially large ones. They make the public proclamation that they are there to defend the employees and privately their number one concern is protecting the company from any liability. If this investigation has shown anything, they have failed absolutely at both tasks. I don't need to go beyond the cube crawls. An HR team that lets employees drink during work hours, inside the building, is allowing a level of liability that I cannot wrap my brain around. They completely and totally failed at their job and should be punished as such.
3. Every single member of leadership, regardless of tenure and team size, needs to be investigated by a 3rd party organization with coordination with local/state/federal law enforcement. Depending on results, termination and legal punishment needs to occur.
If there is not a complete clean up top to bottom and only a few token terminations, nothing will change.
