Unity Software – the company behind the widely used Unity game engine – has announced its third round of layoffs in under 12 months, this time affecting 600 jobs, equating to approximately 8% of its total workforce.
Today’s job losses were confirmed in a company filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, with Unity only saying the move would affect “specific teams” as it continues to “position itself for long-term and profitable growth”.
According to the Wall Street Journal (paywalled), this latest round of layoffs will leave Unity with approximately 7,000 employees, and comes ahead of the San Francisco-based company’s plans to reduce its current global network of offices from 58 to fewer than 30.
