Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has apologized for "not recognizing this terribly painful situation" after a terminally ill employee lost his job in the recent mass layoffs – losing his life insurance in the process – promising that the company "will solve the insurance" for him and his family.
Last week, it was revealed that over 1,000 employees were being laid off from Epic Games, as Sweeney said "I'm sorry we're here again." One of those affected is Michael Prinke, who, according to his LinkedIn, first joined the company in 2019 as a technical writer, before going on to become a programmer writer.
