Blizzard

There are still some fun folks to work with that share that old Blizzard punk-rock & memes attitude.

The Diversity & Inclusion and HR organizations push policies that create a divisive workplace for those who wish to join Blizzard to work on the games they love. There is a specific mindset of people that are allowed to express themselves, and all others are expected to keep quiet. If you speak out against these people's poor behavior or desired cultural changes, you can expect to be reprimanded. Everyone is given the impression that they will be given the James Demore treatment if they violate this groupthink.

You cannot be racist and sexist in your hiring practices, even if the D&I department tells you that you "must" or "should". The fact that no one who went through the mandatory D&I training raised questions about the efficacy and need for the D&I practices is very telling of the lack of critical thinking that happens at the top of the company.
