Activision Blizzard Cuts Coming

Activision Blizzard to suffer job cuts on mcvuk.com has word that the merger
of Activision and Blizzard will lead to an "all-star team" of developers, but
that "overlaps" will result in "redundancies," meaning that some people are
going to lose their jobs: Here are quotes pulled from their
Thomas
Tippl interview: “With every merger, there is overlap and redundancy,
and so the same will be true here. Of course we’re going to go to our customers
with one face. We don’t need two sales forces,” he explained.

“Having said that, if you look at our industry, it’s rapidly growing – last year
it grew 30 per cent. So over time I expect our headcount to grow.”

“But in the short term we will exterminate some of our overlap through
redundancy – but we will treat people respectfully.”

“We will try to put the best team together – the all-star team. We’ll update
both companies’ skill and experience levels and become a formidable company,” he
added.
