Ubisoft

2026:

  • fires team lead after return-to-office critique
  • closes Halifax studio 1 month after Union formed

2025:

  • full-in on gen-AI after shares plummeting
  • NOYB sues because of covert user tracking
  • Ubisoft wants to monitor your RAM (๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ)
  • EULA demands deleting delisted games

2024:

  • deletes inactive customer accounts with purchased games
  • "Gamers need to get comfortable not owning games"
  • adds Denuvo after reviews were made

2023:

  • ads in games
  • started that list here

To be fair, they also want to be bought up (rebranding), after multiple buy-outs and mass-layoffs.

For things before 2023, there was sexual harassment (multiple) bullying and hostile workplace and their excitement over NFT. They had a boys club and made it a really toxic atmosphere, where the CCO literally said "Women don't sell".

I feel like this file would be valuable for every company we might purchase from, and also nearly impossible to maintain.

The website that pulls this off would get the $2.75 I keep not giving Wikipedia.
