So, I have something to share that has bothered me for a very very long time and I think a lot of people here need to hear, and that was my experience working for Ubisoft Sofia. It was my first game job in the industry. The amount of racism, homophobia and sexism I witnessed...

...Was just horrible to witness. Id hear from managers that they want to hire women just so that they could have something to look at. I’ve had my desktop wallpaper changed to pornography whenever I left my machine unlocked. I remember crowds of people in the studio...

...laughing when John Boyega showed up in a Star Wars trailer and them calling him a monkey. I’ve had jokes being played on me repeatedly like I was in some fraternity. On literally a nearly daily basis people would make homophobic jokes on the studio floor, they even had a gay..

...sailor pinup propped up near where I sat. I wanted to get away from the studio and Ubisoft MTL at the time wanted me to relocate. The studio manager (believe he still works there) denied the relocation and called me into a meeting to tell me that I have...

...embarassed the studio and that I should just quit. I never got fired instead they sidelined me into a role I didnt want to be in until I quit myself. I felt a breath of fresh air and put this all behind me but now im reliving those experiences again...

...ever since I came out as trans I would ocassionally get a stream of views on my linkedin profile from those toxic colleagues and Im sure theyre making horrible jokes about me, its traumatic. I couldnt come out as trans when I was there because...

... I feared for my life. So now, because they’re making me relive this I’m going to out them...

...Ubisoft Sofia is a toxic studio, its culture perpetuates discrimination and I really urge people to never work there....

...I’m shaking typing this because it has hurt me for such a very very long time that they treated me and other people with so much disrespect. I still distinctly remember how unsettled I was about the repeated racist jokes theyd make of POC working at Ubisoft MTL....

... I know im going to get a lot of backlash for this and you know what? I dont care anymore. I’ve made a career for myself, I am in a position where I can stand up and call you toxic people out because you’ve given me and many other people so much mental trauma...
