Full Tilt Poker Subsidiary Pocket Kings Makes 180 RedundantFull Tilt Subsidiary Pocket Kings Lets Up To 180 Staff Go In Ongoing Saga |
|
News site, IrishTimes.com, has reported that up to 180 staff at Full Tilt’s Dublin-based subsidiary, Pocket Kings, were made redundant during the latter half of last week.
Employees who spoke to The Irish Times said they had been offered statutory redundancy. They also said the company’s reason given for the lay-offs was that it was restructuring as a result of the loss of US and European revenues.
In September news broke that the company would be making up to 250 employees redundant following a four-week consultation period. That month also saw regulator, the Alderney Gambling Control Commission, revoke Full Tilt’s licence, banning it from continuing to trade.
This is a long way off from the good news just this February that the company was adding more and more jobs in Dublin and that the growth was “estimated to continue at this strong rate for all of 2011 and beyond”.
Pocket Kings provides software, information technology, management and customer support services for Full Tilt from its Dublin base.
