Morrus posts on Enworld where employees confirm. http://www.enworld.org/forum/news/26891 ... 009-a.html Friday, 4 December, 2009 Layoffs at WotC * An anonymous source tells me that WotC had it's usual annual pre-Christmas layoffs yesterday - and that Rob Heinsoo, Logan Bonner, and Chris Sims were among the casualties. o Update: confirmed here by Chris Sims. o Another name to add to the list (from the same source): Stephen Radney-McFarland. o Logan Bonner confirms here. * Who's left? Obviously I don't know even a fraction of those at WotC, but still there (that I've heard of) are: Peter Lee, Matt Sernett, Steve Schubert, Peter Schaefer, Mike Mearls, Bruce Cordell, James Wyatt, Rich Baker and Rodney Thompson. * Remember that there were plenty of folk at WotC who we don't know were also let go. * Layoffs in previous years include Jeff Grubb, Sean K. Reynolds, Skip Williams, Jonathan Tweet, Julia Martin, Jim Butler, Chris Pramas, David Noonan, Stan!, Owen Stephens, Linae Foster. * Monte Cook apparently left of his own volition. Scott "The Rouse" Rouse is no longer with WotC (since a couple of months ago) but he's been silent on the reasons for his departure. * Chris Pramas on past layoffs: "These things often also hinge on internal politics, who your friends are, and how well you play (or insulate yourself from) the corporate game. And to be clear, I don't have info on this specific round of layoffs. I'm just generalizing based on past history." |
