Unity has laid off approximately 600 employees in its third round of layoffs over the past year, according to a Wall Street Journal report, which says the company is also looking to cut the number of offices it maintains worldwide nearly in half over the next few years, from 58 to 30.
According to Unity, the layoffs are part of an effort to reduce layers of management, streamline its operations, and improve the company's profitability. "It's all about setting ourselves up for higher growth," Unity CEO John Riccitiello said.
