The wage-theft scheme operated by major American animation studios continues to grow with no end in sight. Yesterday, the three existing class-action suits against the studios filed earlier this fall were combined into one sprawling 34-page complaint.
The amended complaint implicates Jeffrey Katzenberg’s DreamWorks Animation as playing a much larger role in the conspiracy than previously assumed, and also presents evidence that Connecticut-based Blue Sky Studios of Ice Age and Rio fame was working in collusion with the other studios.
The accused studios, among them Pixar, Lucasfilm, ILM, DreamWorks Animation, The Walt Disney Company, Sony Pictures Animation, Sony Pictures Imageworks, Blue Sky Studios, and Imagemovers, “secretly agreed to work together to deprive thousands of their workers of better compensation and deny them opportunities to advance their careers at other companies,†according to the filing.
At least they're not training their H1B replacements...
