Many employees also seem unhappy with management’s decision to change the pricing model. According to former Unity senior software engineer Jono Forbes, who prior to this week worked on the XR and PolySpatial teams (via LinkedIn), the company’s pricing update caused some employees to depart from the company.

“As a Unity employee until this morning, I assure you we fought like hell against this, brought up all the points everyone has, were told answers were coming, and then the announcement went out without warning,”

Forbes wrote on X (Twitter).

“Those of us who care are out — more resignations coming end of week.”

Forbes announced the departure from Unity on September 13 after working at the company for seven years. However, it is unclear how many employees, who couldn’t tolerate the management’s decision to introduce per-install fees, did the same.

Replying to Forbes, New Blood’s Dillion Rogers noted that the “problem with Unity for several years now is that the people running the show aren’t listening to the developers and engineers like yourself.”
