How do you lose that much money? How does Unity Technologies employ 7700 people?!

For comparison: Epic Games employs about 3700 people. That includes the people working on Fortnite and the Epic Games store.

Edit: the stats might be a bit questionable though.

It sounds like Unity needs to learn some personal responsibility. Why should they get a hand out at our expense? /s

Seriously though, that is an insane number of employees. It sounds like another case of poor leadership that thought there'd be free money forever.

There's a big chunk of "technically unity" that used to be Weta.
According to Wilipedia only 275 employees became part of Unity theough this acquisition.
