I don't know how much difference 60 developers (probably not the best and brightest, as I'd expect Blizzard to hold on to those) would make.
I'd be happy to be wrong, though.
- gaius 15y agoDoesn't work like that in layoffs. If an entire business line is cut, individual performance is irrelevant.
- runevault 15y agoOnly to a point, if someone is good enough a smart company will reshuffle someone truly exceptional into another part of the company. Though one would have to be REALLY stand out in such a large company to get that treatment.
- daeken 15y agoI think you're right -- I don't think this is more than a blip on the radar. However, when layoffs start happening, others start to think about leaving too, so it's far more than 60 developers in the end.
