I’m all for it, absolutely strike, but…

I think it’s too late. The time to strike was years ago against the obvious bad decisions of upper management. Stock price is less than a dollar, the company IPs are worthless

Better late than never I guess

So how long till Tencent buys Ubisoft completely, takes the IP’s it wants and just closes/sell everything else? I give it a year max

  At this point a year is generous

Strike is only for 3 days according to the article. I think they should strike until their demands are met, otherwise Ubislop could just wait it out.

  Yeah when the company is looking to cut as much cost as possible, if it’s not an indefinite strike then you’re just telling them ahead of time that they should probably just let you all go
