   The steady drumbeat of tech layoffs continued this week, with video game   
   giant Electronic Arts announcing it would cut 6% of its workforce.   
      
   The Redwood City-based publisher of games including "The Sims" and "Madden   
   NFL" announced the layoffs Wednesday in a note from its CEO Andrew Wilson.   
      
   "As we drive greater focus across our portfolio, we are moving away from   
   projects that do not contribute to our strategy, reviewing our real estate   
   footprint, and restructuring some of our teams," Wilson wrote in a letter   
   published on the company's website.   
      
   The cuts are expected to affect around 800 employees globally; it was not   
   clear which office locations would be impacted. In California, Electronic   
   Arts has offices in San Francisco, Redwood City, Foster City and   
   Sacramento, according to the company's website. A company representative   
   declined to provide information beyond what was stated in the CEO's   
   letter.   
      
   The company expects to spend around $170 million to $200 million on the   
   restructuring, according to a regulatory filing. It is estimated to be   
   complete by the end of September.   
      
   The news of mass layoffs at tech behemoths shows no signs of abating, and   
   experts say the impact is starting to reflect in the local economy. The   
   latest figures show that San Francisco’s unemployment rate is starting to   
   tick up after a year of companies shedding jobs.   
      
   "The number of unemployed residents of San Francisco jumped by 4,500 in   
   January, according to the BLS,” city economist Ted Egan told The Standard   
   earlier this month. “This was the largest jump since the start of the   
   pandemic.”
