Zynga Shutters Offices To Help Increase Profits

"Whenever we make changes like this, we have to make some tough decisions around products, teams and people.

Zynga is also moving employees in its McKinney, Texas and downtown Austin offices to its Dallas and North Austin offices. Employees in the company's New York City offices will also be moved to the mobile studio in the city.

The struggling social gaming company said that the moves were part of its plan to leverage its resources and drive profitability. In October, Zynga shut down its Boston office and let go five percent of its workforce.
