As Kotaku note, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick toldIGNless than a month ago that they had “no current plans” to lay off any employees. The publisher appear to be in the pink. They reported net bookings of $1.2 billion for the last quarter, 20 percent up from a year ago, with Zelnick personally garnering $40 million in total compensation as CEO last year.
Last month Take-Two acquiredBorderlands developers Gearbox from Embracer, who themselves recentlyannounced the conclusion of their own “restructuring” program- I’m not sure I’d bet against further layoffs and closures, there.
