MindsEye Studio Downsizing Deepens as BARB Cuts Hit 170
Roughly 170 employees at MindsEye, the studio within Build A Rocket Boy, were laid off—leaving about 80 of 250 staff—marking the third round of cuts this year and following the closure of Build A Rocket Boy France. The moves come as the company pursues a MindsEye turnaround tied to its Everywhere project, with co-CEO Mark Gerhard attributing the layoffs to 'organized espionage and corporate sabotage' and former staff confirming departures on LinkedIn.
