Many from the core team have worked there since 1995. They may also have thought that this was a good time to move on to other ventures.

The unemployment rate her in Norway are around 3%[0], and probably 0% among it-engineers, so thus guys will be picked up right away.

My comment was more about the company, and less so about the people. Mass layoffs with severance does not portray the situation as employees choosing to leave.
