Wizards of the Coast insta a su personal a reconsiderar sus planes de sindicalización

Wizards of the Coast ha enviado cartas a los desarrolladores de Magic: The Gathering Arena animándoles a pensárselo dos veces antes de formar un sindicato. Esta medida se produce tras la petición presentada el mes pasado por los desarrolladores. Se cree que el mensaje fue redactado por el presidente de la compañía, John Hight.

La carta destaca la preocupación por un posible cambio en la relación entre el personal y la dirección de la empresa. Se refiere al sindicato como una tercera parte y enfatiza el valor de mantener una comunicación directa con la gerencia. Los empleados compartieron fragmentos en Bluesky, señalando las implicaciones de que la representación sindical podría conducir a una reducción de los beneficios o salarios en comparación con los acuerdos actuales.
