In the latest round of upsetting news for the games industry, Naughty Dog is the next studio to make cuts, this time for at least 25 contractors.
This comes from Kotaku, who spoke with two sources reporting that the cuts were communicated internally at the studio last week. Members of the quality assurance team were primarily affected, but there were some in the art department and production that have been too. At least 25 contractors have seen their contracts shortened, but full-time staff do not currently appear to be included in the cuts.
The sources also told Kotaku that the contractors being laid off haven't been offered any severance, and both those who have been laid off as well as other employees were apparently pressured into staying quiet about the news. Worse still, the contractors are expected to work through to the end of their contracts, which apparently now terminates in October.
