F1 Manager developer Frontier accused of mismanagement in wake of layoffs


F1 Manager developer Frontier has been accused of mismanagement in a new report in the wake of layoffs at the company. …

"That's actually been the biggest issue seen across multiple titles: uncontrollable spending, poor decisions (such as what licences we pay for, games we make, and what we fund), and then trying to offset it with unrealistic sales expectations, which anyone internally could tell you even early on that we'd never be able to hit," said one source. "Integration activities and growth plans for Complex are on-track, and the acquisition delivered modest accretive financial benefits in FY23, as expected," reads a statement from Frontier in response. A statement to GLHF reads: "The executive directors have acknowledged that some of the decisions made over the last five years, particularly in terms of business diversification, have not delivered the anticipated levels of financial performance."
