In other news, high ranking Activision Blizzard executive, Brian Buatao, sent a companywide email to employees last week (December 10), warning of the “consequences” of unionization. The e-mail reads ” “I want to be clear about this: The leadership of Activision Blizzard supports your right, under the the [sic] National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), to make your own decision about whether or not to join a union, – We ask only that you take time to consider the consequences of your signature on the binding legal document presented to you by CWA (union)”
