Former Niantic Employees File Sexual Bias Lawsuit Against Company
Two former employees of Niantic, the maker of Pokémon Go, are suing the company over allegations of sexual bias in the workplace. The lawsuit claims that the company exhibited a "boys club" culture and devalued the work of female employees, particularly women of color. Niantic is seeking to dismiss the case and move it into arbitration, while the plaintiffs argue that the company's arbitration agreement excludes claims involving sexual bias. Niantic has stated that the allegations do not reflect how the company operates and that it does not believe the lawsuit has merit.
