It's not the talented people you have the worry about. They'll choose a new job on the way home. It's the barely competent people who will struggle. They have a degree thanks to a C- average and do their job well enough not to get immediately walked out.
So you think the solution is to, indeed, whine and complain? Having a career is not easy, and everyone is responsible for their own success, like it or not. People can either recognize this and manage their lives accordingly ... or not.
The issue with your second question and earlier statement is that it implies only the studios that delivered bad products received cuts.
Who is the complaining helping?
Not the best and could have done with some photoshopping, but here you go.
To be fair, I think a lot of the objections were mainly because it would be anti-competitive for MS to buy up half the damn gaming industry and keep all these huge franchises/publishers from supporting other platforms.
...and when Boss saw this big-ass Hoosier waving a heavy duty bat, he thought that it would be a pity if he let go of all that hard work coming down on him like an Old Testament Archangel, so...
If you're helping to dig your own grave, you might consider asking some questions.
If any of that was true, a lot managers would be without a job. But those usually are the cockroaches.
Hopefully the talented ones who do work hard land on their feet very soon
Usually, the talented/good ones land on their feet and don't whine on twitter/linkedin. If your fist instinct is to whine on twitter/linkedin in these situations, you are not in the talented/good/expert category.
This is an article regarding Amazon layoffs from an Eastern European country. It mentioned that the people laid off are required to do training/handover to Indians who are taking their place.
Just messing with you bro. I generally agree with most of your opinions.
Sorry if you don't like my opinion
I heard from someone when a location was shut-down - they turned up to work to find it locked and armed guards outside. They then separated people into two groups - one group got put on buses to a hotel. There was a reception at the hotel with food etc and then they were told that they had all been fired, but please enjoy some finger food.

in that complaining publicly doesn't solve much.
If? Do you know any highly talented people who can't find a job? The only instances this could happen is if they chose some extremely obscure field of study. Certainly not the case in the video games industry. Management is a whole different thing. It's not about talent, but rather willingness to do awful things to good people. Apples and oranges. But I am curious to the highly talented people you know that aren't able to find a job. We might have some bad news for you regarding their abilities...If any of that was true, a lot managers would be without a job. But those usually are the cockroaches.
Don't judge a man until you walk a mile in his shoes.
Thousand or millions lose their job everyday in the world. It's part of life, we like it or not.
gosh, no! I mean, that could never ever happen!...
