Activision blames Microsoft for failing to hire a woman on the corporate board

Activision did not hire enough women to serve on its corporate board, thus contravening California law. The reason? According to the company, it is Microsoft's fault and the ongoing acquisition.

The company said: "Considering that the current members of the company will stop serving the company board after the transaction with Microsoft is closed, we have not had way of concluding the [hiring] process in 2021 ". Activision Blizzard continues by stating, "We will continue our efforts to select a new female member."

There are doubts, however, that the complication resulting from the acquisition by Microsoft is sufficient justification given that the laws date back to 2019.

Kotic, CEO of Activision Activision does not have a positive past when it comes to managing its female employees. The company ended up in a media storm last year following a California lawsuit for sexual misconduct and abuse.
