Multiple Ubisoft executives step down amid workplace abuse allegations

Ubisoft has announced that several of the company’s executives have stepped down amid a scandal involving allegations of workplace misconduct and harassment. Chief creative officer Serge Hascoët, the managing director of Ubisoft’s Canadian studios Yannis Mallat, and global head of human resources Cécile Cornet have all stepped down from their positions as part of what a press release calls “the comprehensive work the Company is doing to improve and strengthen its workplace culture.” 

“These departures come following the initiation of a rigorous review that the Company initiated in response to recent allegations and accusations of misconduct and inappropriate behavior,” it says. There will also be a “restructuring and strengthening” of Ubisoft’s HR policies and structure.
