Rockville, Maryland-based ZeniMax Media, a subsidiary of Microsoft Gaming that develops and publishes computer games for various platforms, has announced a reduction in force as part of Microsoft's broader plan to streamline operations and prioritize strategic growth areas within Microsoft Gaming.
The personnel realignment will impact 164 employees and contractors and is scheduled to take effect on September 1, 2025.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life, nor promises of a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, at any time, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
