For context: I follow this project albeit not religiously. I remember Steven talking about how there were some layoffs last year in the industry and even Intrepid was affected. Now, I see that they just posted a bunch of new openings on their instagram.

Is there anyone with insight into what types of positions they had to layoff last year, and if they are now rehiring back similar roles? Or are these roles they have been looking to fill for some time? Would love to hear anyone’s insight into related points as well.

Positions on our site are most often newly created positions, or us looking to add staff to existing teams.

While we often reflect on the layoffs in the gaming industry during our Development Update livestreams, we're not talking about layoffs at Intrepid Studios. Our yearly attrition rate averages to under 2%, way below the industry standard. If you want more context, here's a segment from our most recent Development Update livestream, with a timestamp to where this conversation starts.

On a tangent, if you know good people in the gaming industry that are looking for work, please send them our way. Even if they don't see a position open that's relevant to them, we're always looking for people who would be great for the team. We have a general applicant section on our careers page here.
