Late last month, Bungie laid off 220 employees in a decision which—to put it lightly—has shaken the company. The impacted developers have already expressed their frustration, anger, and disappointment on social media, especially in the wake of claims that CEO Pete Parsons spent $2.4 million on vintage vehicles over the past 2 years.
This number, while not substantial in terms of Bungie's budget, is still terrible optics and understandably upsetting for the developers—at least one of whom was due to receive the company's maternity benefits right before being laid off or, as another employee claims, struggling with groceries while on Bungie's payroll.
