Back in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...
Abby is our world and words cannot describe the things we are feeling right now. We simply just want both of our dogs back. Here she is, helping us paint protest signs last November. She’s the best girl.
Chris BrattNot only has Will's partner been forced to return to Australia as well, but their two dogs have been left stranded in Edinburgh for several months. Tragically, their older dog's health has since deteriorated. She will no longer be able to make it back to Melbourne to be reunited with her family.

In October last year I was fired by Rockstar Games in what we believe was a union busting move. We lost our home. We lost 2 jobs with my partner being forced to resign. We lost a community. Most importantly however we had to leave our two dogs behind, one of which will never return.

I am beyond stoked that it looks like these negotiations between the Rockstar Games Workers Union and Rockstar Management have begun ✊ 🌱 A commitment to NO crunch, pay transparency, flexible working, NO AI, and a commitment to NO layoffs is something every workplace should have.
RSGWUWe’re happy to share this major news🌱✊

If a team makes a game that gets great reviews and doesn't sell, that's a biz failing but the silver lining is you caught lighting in a bottle -- protect that team! It's worth its weight in gold. If you jettison the team but keep the biz people, I don't know what to tell you
