Update: Activision is now trying to block a union vote at Blizzard Albany while it appeals its most recent defeat.

The ruling instantly clears the path for an election, which will begin soon. Ballots will be sent out on October 27, with votes being counted on November 18.Washington Post“It’s about time. Our QA testers are some of the most talented and skilled people working in our company and they are critically undervalued by corporate. I think that all games workers need a union, but QA is in especially dire need.

Examples: through direct dialogue we’ve already converted contingent QA staff to full time, increased pay, increased benefits, opened up access to the bonus program, and offered more opportunities for professional advancement . I’m sharing all of that because having a streamlined process is a reason why the company prefers direct discussions - but ultimately it’s up to employees and everyone should get to vote their own preference in a fair election.

It’s a shame Blizzard has worked so hard to turn things around but no one will know because they’re still being dragged through the mud by Activision.
