United Wizards of the Coast is looking to address protections around layoffs, remote work, and generative AI, as well as sustainable workloads and policies around crunch, career progression, and the removal of a policy that allows Hasbro (which owns Wizards of the Coast) ownership of creative materials made by employees of the company—even what's done outside work hours. Both Kessler and Valentine Powell, a senior software engineer and organizing committee member, cited generative AI and return to office mandates as important issues.
Oh what a suprise, totally reasonable requests. I hope they do well.
