New reports suggest that Jen Oneal, Activision Blizzard’s former co-lead who stepped down from being head of the company after three months, was only offered pay parity with fellow (male) co-lead Mike Ybarra after she resigned from the company.
These new updates are the latest in a string of Activision Blizzard controversies that have been exposed in the wake of reports the company fostered a toxic culture.
An employee group for Activision Blizzard King workers, A Better ABK, has staged a walkout in protest to the new allegations, and has called for Kotick’s resignation.
To combat future issues at the company, Actvision has plans to take on workplace abuse and improve its hiring practices.
