     “As part of a continued planning process where we regularly assess our resourcing levels against our company priorities, we decided to realign some of our resources to better drive focus and support our long-term growth. This resulted in some hard decisions that impacted approximately 4% of all Unity workforce.”

     

    Let us hope that this is not a reflection of any long term problems for the company since Pantheon wa well as other newer MMOs rely on Unity products and support.

    It's part of a larger trend right now. The fed is raising rates like crazy to try to fight against inflation and it's having a negative effect on businesses.

    Thanks. Sounds like the layoff is a response to general conditions in the economy, rather than any particular problems that Unity is having. A good sign IMO.
