“are you suggesting that had MS not bought these companies that no layoffs would have happened?”
A US Senator is, I’m agreeing. “Senator Warren took to Twitter to criticize the downsizing, reminding followers of her previous warnings against the merger. “I warned that this deal would hurt workers,” she wrote. “These layoffs are a stark reminder that corporate mergers are bad for workers. The FTC should keep up the fight to unwind this merger.”
As for the devs “Activision Blizzard employees have described the layoffs as a “bloodbath” on social media.”
“I really have no words right now, just feeling alot of trauma from the 2018 layoffs and we’re here again. No idea if my position is impacted and just trying to hang out with my team while I can.”
“There have now been posts from almost every Call of Duty studio about lay offs. Employees from Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer Games, Raven Software, Treyarch, High Moon Studios, and more laid off. Devastating.”
Who do you suggest is to blame for this?
