Available jobs are below the worse time during COVID, and I’m pretty sure the number of CS grads has greatly increased (but couldn’t find a good chart).
To add to this, the game industry has had year after year of record-breaking layoffs worse than the 2008 Recession for about 5 years in a row now. They over-hired during the Pandemic, expecting things to not drop off afterward, but this is way beyond that. The big companies are devouring each other and destroying studios they bought for large sums of money only a couple of years later, bleeding talent and creativity out of the workforce along the way as there are too many people laid off and too few jobs. Most of them will never work in the industry again.

Interesting. That looks like it sucks for people looking for work. 😐
