Some of EK Water Block’s top employees are now leaving the company, with Head of Product Marketing Attila Gobor reportedly joining Noctua and Lead Product Designer Joe Robey moving to Thermal Grizzly as its Head of Mechanical R&D. This news, as reported by OC3D, is the latest blow in a series of setbacks that the water-cooling giant is experiencing.
The issue first came to light in April of this year when reports surfaced that EKWB had left its employees and suppliers unpaid for four months. It was soon confirmed by its CEO and founder, Edvard König, who promised to rectify problems and right the EKWB ship. All this happened nearly two years after the company cut its workforce by 25% percent, significantly as global sales of water-cooling solutions dropped precariously.
