- Unity Software said Monday that it would lay off about 1,800 employees, or 25% of its overall workforce, as part of a corporate restructuring plan.
- The company said it is unable to “reasonably estimate the costs and charges in connection with this reduction, which it expects will be substantially incurred in the first quarter of 2024.”
- In October, John Riccitiello retired as Unity’s CEO, while former Red Hat CEO James Whitehurst became interim CEO.
It’s great to see the majority of workers paying for the mistakes of that big pricing fuckup that was approved by a minority of people in power. Just a normal day for capitalism, nothing to see here.
How do you expect a business to run? Every major business decision go to a vote? Or should a company that is bleeding cash not lay off anyone until the company shuts down and everyone is out of a job?
Lay off a few C-Suite. Abolish golden parachutes. It’s not so difficult that a company can’t run for a few months without execs.
The second one. It’s funny that people think this is an absurd suggestion, too.
Lmao, yeah, let’s just let everyone join the unemployment line together. Big brain moves.
“If we don’t do what they say they’ll bring the entire economy to a halt, yes this is the best most flawless system imaginable” is definitely an objective and emotionless assessment and not ideological cowardice.
