Multiple members of the OpTic Gaming staff have been laid off, social media posts confirmed on Thursday.

The layoffs at OpTic, most well known for its successes on the Call of Duty circuit, follow in the footsteps of 100 Thieves, which parted ways with more than a dozen employees earlier this month.

Among the affected Thursday was Brand Manager and Head of Marketing Lindsay Caudill, who tweeted in part, “Unfortunately, today is my last day with OpTic & Dallas Fuel as I was laid off.”

Former all-rounder Ian Huston, who was working in management and operations, also confirmed being laid off on Twitter, receiving multiple job recommendations from current players straight away.
