One of the affected folks by layoffs from Games 24x7. Was one of the worst times in office when close to 150 folks have been laid off. Teams that have given revenue, folks who have joined the company from inception have all been axed.
The worst part was the way it was handled. Guards were everywhere in the office, and were escorting people out as soon as the call with the manager and the HR ended. Was chatting with team mates after the call, and someone came and told me your 15 mins are over. Felt like the times when you have to go and meet someone in prison and you get only 10-15 mins time. A lot of hardworking folks got laid off, and complete teams have been razed down.
Some folks got 4 months of severance and some got 2 months. The worst part was laying off folks who have been with the company over 10-12 years. Brutal times in the RMG space
so the real story was in games24x7 :
