Whining CEO blames PR for layoffs, saying they should have given out more review codes
Layoffs are a frequent problem in the video game industry, and recently, the situation has been especially difficult, with many thousands of people losing their jobs. These decisions are made by company leaders – investors, boards, and CEOs. Publicly criticizing a PR Manager, particularly while layoffs are happening, is extremely unprofessional and inappropriate.
The comments on Gryparis’s post were almost entirely negative, so he defended it further. He claimed the critical comments largely came from PR professionals who secretly agreed with him but hadn’t publicly responded to gaming journalists, and also from people who had recently lost their jobs. Gryparis argued that PR managers should always respond to journalists requesting game keys and provide those keys, calling it a matter of professionalism and respect. He concluded by stating that less publicity leads to fewer sales.
