According to a statement of intent published by several news outlets on Tuesday, the group of employees organizing the walkout slammed the company for its initial response to the civil suit. That response largely defended Activision Blizzard and was critical of the state agency that brought the claim. "[W]e believe that our values as employees are not being accurately reflected in the words and actions of our leadership," the employees' statement read.
