Yves Guillemot: "Changes of this scale naturally raise questions and create tension"

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot acknowledged "legitimate concerns" from staff following the company's €200 million cost-cutting plan and restructuring. Over 1,200 employees struck earlier this month, with the union demanding transparency, remote work protections, and pay raises. Guillemot said the company will prioritize voluntary departures while carefully controlling new hires, and emphasized the need for "open dialogue" during major changes.
