I’d love to know how these top developers are identified. What’s this mythical productivity metric? If Epic has one that accurately models productivity they should 1) share individual scores with their employees and 2) stop wasting time on games and start selling it to every other corporation.

If they really did over-hire during the pandemic and fail to plan for the future that was either 1) intentional and they lied to recruits about the duration of employment or 2) incompetence on the part of leadership and recruiting. Have heads rolled in the responsible departments?
