Ubisoft CEO reportedly apologises for 'ball is in your court' comments to employees
Ubisoft cancelled three further games last week, and delayed Skull and Bones yet again.
"I heard your feedback and I'm sorry this was perceived that way," Guillemot reportedly told staff at the start of the Q&A."When saying 'the ball is in your court' to deliver our lineup on time and at the expected level of quality, I wanted to convey the idea that more than ever I need your talent and energy to make it happen.
Elsewhere in the Q&A - which Kotaku reports was"filled with industry buzzwords and business jargon and light on specifics" - chief people officer Anika Grant is said to have rejected a recent proposal for four-day work weeks, as well as requests for pay increases in-line with inflation.by the Ubisoft Paris chapter of workers union Solidaires Informatique, which accused Guillemot of asking"a lot from his employees, but without any compensation".
Guillemot is said to have remained vague regarding potential layoffs during today's Q&A, telling employees,"It's not about doing more with less, but finding ways to do things differently across the company".
