Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick sent a warning letter to all employees following a sexual harassment and discrimination lawsuit at the company. In the letter, Kotick called the company’s initial response to the lawsuit “fairly lukewarm” and promised that management would “immediately evaluate management and leaders within the company.” The letter was sent the night before a strike organized by Activision Blizzard employees.
Activision Blizzard’s initial response to the lawsuit was a scathing denial, with a company spokesperson calling the allegations “misrepresented and largely false.” Blizzard president J. Allen Brack later commented on the lawsuit as “extremely concerning” in an internal email.
