With id Software currently developing Doom 4, some employes were unfortunately let go due to "standard business practice", but at the same time they are still recruiting and hiring developers.
Here is Bethesda's statement on the layoffs:
As part of its standard business practice, id regularly evaluates staffing to ensure it has a workforce that meets the needs of the studio. As part of that process, some id employees were recently let go.
Id is still recruiting and hiring qualified developers, and development work on future id titles continues unabated.
