It’s specific to that degree, it’s a kind of long article. Here’s one of the quotes from the interview
“Over 70%, and in some years 75%, of the layoffs have been in North America,” Satvat shared. “North America used to have 30%, 35%, 40% of the open roles, and that number is now down to 25%. Overall employment in the industry has actually increased since pre-COVID. But if you’re in North America in a AAA studio, you’re like, ‘what are you talking about? The workforce is cut by 15% to 20%’. Versus if you’re in a studio in Asia you’re like, ‘What are you talking about? We’ve seen an increase in jobs’.”
“And here’s another stat, over 50% of the cuts globally have been in California. California AAA is like the epicenter of the difficulty.”
