The problem is not the embargo, but thinking it needs a broadcast to the press. They did many times before: announce the whole company at the same time, publish a public statement at the same time, select where to answer if questions come up from outside. Why was it done differently this time?
Ubisoft EMBARGOED news to outlets about the layoffs and studio closures, FYI.
Employees were told this morning. And then many reached out to us.
Companies trying to embargo layoffs and closures might be the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen in my 16 years.
