This is nonsensical. What exactly did Zynga do that was so bad? They are still making hundreds of millions of dollars per quarter. That's something most companies will never do. It's not like they committed fraud or anything illegal.

As well, regardless of what you think of Zynga's games or their business strategy, the engineers have really great skills in dealing with some very great technology and high-load situations. They will be extremely marketable.

To paint every single employee with the same paintbrush just because their business isn't something you particularly enjoy is dumb.




They still have how many years left on that lease on that building? Six years still? Ruh-roh, Raggy.


The building isn't leased - they bought it for cash a year or so ago.
