More than 400 Twitch employees have lost their jobs as part of a further round of layoffs at parent company Amazon.
As reported by Polygon, however, Twitch did not inform those impacted by the layoffs ahead of today's announcement. Instead, Clancy told employees in an all-staff email that everyone affected will be informed "no later than early next week".
In a public statement, Clancy blamed the layoffs on the "current macroeconomic environment, and user and revenue growth [that] has not kept pace with our expectations."
Kind of feels like the Amazon thing hasn't worked out.
