There are more than 7k employees work in Unity. I don't understand why Unity needs so much workforce given that company is struggling to reach profitability.

Hence the layoffs i guess. They just wouldn't want to let a layoff go to waste so they jammed in a terribly greedy unpopular decision to monetize like they did. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
