The FTC isn’t happy with Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard layoffs::The Federal Trade Commission is still looking to reverse Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Now, it’s telling on Microsoft after massive layoffs.
Microsoft lawyer Rakesh Kilaru wrote that Microsoft was already considering layoffs before the merger.
Corporate gaslighting at it’s finest. we planned to layoff ~1000 employees from the company we were acquiring before we agreed not to do that!
“agreed”
I bet Satya is gonna get a stern letter and have to promise not to do it again!
Maybe the first part. Not the second part.
It’s not too late to do your job, FTC
FTC is doing its job and has been fighting this from the beginning. Need the courts to do their job and side with the FTC.
In other news: The FTC won’t do Jack shit about it.
Maybe they’ll shake up the customer care which treats players like shit.
