Video Game Union Strikes Against Microsoft Outsourcing

Hundreds of Bethesda video game workers, part of the largest video games union in the U.S., are striking over Microsoft's outsourcing of quality assurance work and remote work policies. The union, representing over 300 workers, claims Microsoft has not addressed their concerns at the bargaining table, prompting a one-day strike. They seek to limit outsourcing and demand more flexible remote work options, as current policies require office attendance twice a week. The union has filed an unfair labor complaint against ZeniMax, a Microsoft subsidiary.
