Publisher EA laid off an unknown number of workers today. The layoffs are the latest job losses at the company. Earlier this month EA studios in Montreal laid off several hundred people while an unknown number of people were let go in India and the U.K. In addition, EA CEO John Riccitiello recently resigned.
In a statement, the company did not detail how many people would be affected.
"In recent weeks, EA has aligned all elements of its organizational structure behind priorities in new technologies and mobile. This has led to some difficult decisions to reduce the workforce in some locations. We are extremely grateful for the contributions made by each of our employees – those that are leaving EA will be missed by their colleagues and friends.
These are hard but essential changes as we focus on delivering great games and showing players around the world why to spend their time with us."
Kotaku reports that the company may let 10% of 9,000 employees go.
