Translated with AI from the Russian original.
The full names, job titles, and departments of the signatories are publicly accessible. Those dissatisfied include not only Blizzard and Activision employees
Activision employs around 10,000 people, 1,300 (1,337, to be precise) of whom are dissatisfied with the company’s CEO Bobby Kotick and are demanding his resignation. The agitators drew up a petition signed not only by employees of Activision itself and Blizzard, but also by animators, programmers, engineers, QA specialists, designers, and other staff from Raven Software, High Moon Studios, King, Treyarch, and other Activision studios.
“We, the undersigned, no longer have confidence in Bobby Kotick as the CEO of Activision Blizzard. The information that has come to light about his behaviors and practices in the running of our companies runs counter to the culture and integrity required of our leadership, and directly conflicts with the initiatives started by our peers.”
The authors of the petition ask Bobby Kotick to resign as CEO of Activision, giving shareholders the opportunity to appoint a new leader without his involvement. Exactly how the company is supposed to do this remains unclear, since Bobby Kotick owns 25% of all company shares, and along with them the authority to make any decisions at Activision.
Even if Bobby Kotick is successfully ousted, Activision will still have to provide him with a golden parachute worth $265,175,849.
