Autodesk announces 925 layoffs — 10% of its workforce — as part of restructuring plan

As with many such “restructurings,” this means that Autodesk is laying off a significant chunk of its staff — 925 positions, equating to around 10 percent of the workforce.
Founded out of California in 1982, Autodesk became best known for its AutoCad desktop software, but today it produces a range of tools across multiple platforms and design disciplines, and it has aligned itself closely with 3D printing through initiatives such as its open 3D-printing platform, Spark.
Elsewhere, Autodesk also makes what is considered one of the best game engines on the market in Stingray, though it’s competing against the likes of Unity and Unreal, which make their respective offerings available for free.
