I thought the word "mobe" was banned on El Reg?

Would it be safe to say Picsel decimated it's workforce?

I did miss the liberation of "mobe" from the festering pit in which it belongs. In my defence, I did read Lester Haines' original article but to be honest I didn't have a clue what he was on about.

It has a cool name, what more dya need, they still advertice for developers therefore I assume its needing to lose a few project managers, or those who were manging the 'offshore' experience......Which I heard was a bit well...Needful....

“Would it be safe to say Picsel decimated it's workforce?”

No. At least, not with that apostrophe.

Picsel are not hiring developers, and 10% is way too high to be accounted for simply by 'middle management' or project managers. Also, most of the hits to date are in the UK.

18 from Reading, and another 30 from Glasgow and Edinburgh including everyone they hired over the previous 6 months (because they were still on one weeks notice).

No redundancy package, so I expect most of them will be dishing on this crummy company and their bug-ridden product any day now.
