Amid ongoing unionization efforts at Activision Blizzard, the company has decided to convert all of its part-time quality assurance testers to full-time status. Every one of those workers will make at least $20 per hour, too, and will be able to access the company’s benefits. Well, every worker except those that work at subsidiary Raven Software, that is.
“Across Activision Blizzard, we are bringing more content to players across our franchises than ever before,” the company said in a statement emailed to various publications. “As a result, we are refining how our teams work together to develop our games and deliver the best possible experience for our players.” The spokesperson went on to say the QA team is “a critical part” of its development process.
