Unity Software to cut 3.8% of staff in ‘company reset’::Videogame software provider Unity Software will eliminate 265 jobs or 3.8% of its global workforce and end an agreement with a digital video effects company founded by the “Lord of the Rings” director as part of a “reset,” the company said on Tuesday.
CEO makes terrible decision -> 265 employees get fired.
Cause. Effect. And yet it never adds up.
3.8% to start… They fucked up bad. This layoff is just the very beginning.
Only the beginning. Their absurd attempt at a licensing money-grab backfired so badly, they couldn’t have screwed themselves over any worse if they’d just put it a statement saying, “Stop using Unity. Unreal is so much better!”
Free the engine source code if you intend to ‘reset’ the mistrust of every dev.
I can get behind this.
It won’t happen, but I can dream, Harold!
Padme: From the C-suite, right?
Well well well if it isn’t the cows coming home to roost 🐄
So I know the expression is “chickens” are you referencing something specific with “cows?”
Nah I was just amused because it would make sense if it was the crows coming home to roost, but drop one r and the whole thing goes to shit
The SEC should unironically look into their ex CEO Riccitiello and their c-suite, but they won’t.
