"Unity Software Announces 25% Workforce Reduction"
TL;DR Summary
Unity is reportedly cutting around 1,800 jobs, about 25% of its workforce, marking the largest layoff in the company's history and the latest in a series of layoffs over the past year. The company's interim CEO cited a need to refocus on core business and drive long-term success and profitability. Unity, known for its popular game engine, faced controversy last year over changes to its charging model for developers and publishers. These layoffs contribute to a trend of job losses in the video game industry, with an estimated 6,000 jobs lost in 2023.
