Jurassic World Alive, Cookie Jam developer lays off 200 workers
From Polygon: "Jurassic World Alive and Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery publisher Jam City laid off 17% of staff at the company and its subsidiary Ludia on Thursday. Jam City, which created match-3 game Cookie Jam in 2014 and has locations across the U.S. and Canada, acquired Ludia, located in Montreal and known for creating both original and licensed games, in 2021 and together they employ around 1,400 workers.
About 200 workers were laid off between Jam City and Ludia on Thursday. Polygon spoke to 10 affected Ludia workers and three current employees. Multiple former employees at Ludia told Polygon they were either on leave or vacation when they were laid off, finding out first from other coworkers and then noticing they’d lost access to associated accounts."
