Jen Oneal, Blizzard’s former co-lead who handed in her resignation after just three months, has revealed she only achieved a pay offer with parity to fellow co-lead Mike Ybarra after handing in her resignation letter.
“Jen and I shared with management that we wanted to be paid the same to co-lead Blizzard together,” Ybarra wrote in a Slack message visible to Blizzard employees.
However, Oneal added further detail via Slack – including that she and Ybarra had made “multiple” requests for pay parity which were rejected.
Oneal was told a new pay contract was incoming – but this did not arrive until after the point she had resigned.
