Kotaku reports that Midway is so eager to capitalize on its remaining assets
that it has set aside $3.75 million for bonuses to be paid to Midway upper
management if certain goals are met in selling them off. They state that court
documents how almost a half-million dollars in perks were picked up through
the deal with Ubisoft for Wheelman, and that selling off Mortal
Kombat is an important enough priority that it is listed in these documents
twice. The disturbing additional aspect to this story come from the internal
letters they reproduce indicating that fired Midway employees will now only
receive as much compensation for accrued paid/personal time off as is decided by
the courts under Chapter 11 proceedings, after initially indicating such PTO
would be paid in full. They say this is mandated by the bankruptcy filing, which
came all of three days after promising payment of PTO for severed employees.
