Today the case of Activision Blizzard gave a quite controversial turn. A new report not only noted that Bobby Kick, CEO of this company, knew from cases of inappropriate behavior prior to all this information to be known through demands, but he is also accused by harassment. Given these revelations, the Board of Directors has issued a statement, where they support Kick.
By means of a statement, The Board of Activision Blizzard noted that they rely on the leadership of Bobby Kick to make this company improve in appearance related to inclusiveness and behavior in the work area. This was what was commented about:
The Blizzard Activision Board is still committed to making Activision Blizzard the most welcoming and inclusive company of the industry. Under the Leadership of Bobby Kick, the company is already implementing leading changes in the industry, including a zero-tolerance harassment policy, a dedication to achieve significant increases in the percentages of women and non-binary persons in our labor force, as well as investments Internal and external significant to accelerate opportunities for diverse talent. The Board continues to trust that Bobby Kick adequately addressed the problems of the workplace that were pointed out.
The objectives we have set ourselves are critical and ambitious. The Board continues to rely on the leadership, commitment and ability of Bobby Kick to achieve these objectives.
In response to the information that was announced today, More than 100 employees have started a proposal and a strike. Activision Blizzard workers demand that Bobby Kick be removed from his position as CEO, something that, considering the recent communiqué of the Board of Directors, probably not a reality.

Editor s note:
This is the last straw. Clearly, the Board of Directors is not interested in Bobby Kick threatened an employee death after having harassed her in the company s facilities. The CEO generates money, and that, unfortunately, is the only thing that matters to executives. The image of Activision Blizzard is increasingly stained more and more.
