Microsoft Gaming anunci\u00f3 una nueva ronda de despidos, tal como se inform\u00f3 previamente por varias fuentes no oficiales la semana pasada, con el proceso ya en marcha a trav\u00e9s de notificaciones a todos los empleados afectados. Seg\u00fan la informaci\u00f3n de Microsoft, casi 9.000 empleados (4% de su plantilla) ser\u00e1n despedidos, incluyendo al personal de Xbox, quienes seg\u00fan Phil Spencer est\u00e1n siendo despedidos mientras la empresa busca \u00abcerrar o reducir el trabajo en ciertas \u00e1reas empresariales\u00bb mediante la eliminaci\u00f3n de capas de gesti\u00f3n para mejorar los procesos. Bloomberg inform\u00f3 que King, responsable de Candy Crush, tiene planes de despedir a alrededor de 200 personas, lo que representa aproximadamente el 10% del estudio. Mientras tanto, Rare’s Everwild, un juego anunciado por primera vez en 2019, est\u00e1 siendo cancelado como parte de los recortes. Tambi\u00e9n se esperan despidos en algunos equipos de EE. UU. bajo la divisi\u00f3n de Xbox, con detalles que se anunciar\u00e1n en las pr\u00f3ximas horas. ZeniMax ha comenzado a informar a los empleados sobre los recortes de personal, y hay recortes al equipo de marketing de ZeniMax Media en Londres, Reino Unido, y Rockville, Maryland (no se conocen detalles a\u00fan sobre la escala). Sin embargo, solo las divisiones europeas est\u00e1n notificando al personal, mientras que las divisiones de EE. UU. a\u00fan no saben si han sido afectadas en las pr\u00f3ximas horas. Phil Spencer escribi\u00f3 un mensaje en el que expres\u00f3 su intenci\u00f3n de posicionar el juego para el \u00e9xito a largo plazo, centr\u00e1ndose en \u00e1reas estrat\u00e9gicas de crecimiento, reconociendo que los despidos ocurren cuando tienen el mayor n\u00famero de jugadores, juegos y horas de juego nunca, pero es necesario tomar decisiones para proteger el negocio y las perspectivas de crecimiento.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
