Take-Two säger upp fem procent av personalen
Nedskärningarna i gamingbranschen fortsätter. Nu ska Take-Two Interactive genomföra effektiveringar som innebär att fem procent av personalen – runt 600 personer – kommer att förlora sina jobb. Det visar dokument som företaget lämnat in till den amerikanska myndigheten Securities and Exchange Commission, skriver Engadget.
Take-Two kommer även att lägga ned ett antal stora projekt för att spara pengar, men har inte kommit med några uppgifter om vilka projekt det handlar om.
