Ubisoft announced a massive shakeup in January which, among many other things, forces employees to spend five days a week in the office. One Ubisoft developer, 13-year Assassin's Creed veteran David Michaud-Cromp, was publicly critical of the publisher's decision. He's now been fired.
As part of the restructure announcement last month, Ubisoft said it "intends to return to five days per week on site for all teams, complemented by an annual allowance of working-from-home days." The company argued that "in-person collaboration is a key enabler of collective efficiency, creativity and success in a persistently more selective AAA market."
