Sony is planning to consolidate their product groups in Europe into one major office in Weybridge, U.K. The byproduct of this will be 1,000 lost jobs at offices in U.K. & Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Iberia, Central and Southern Europe, Turkey, Switzerland and Austria, Benelux and the Nordic region.

It’s currently unknown how or if this announcement will affect the PlayStation division, which is one of Sony’s more profitable branches. The majority of losses are said to be coming in sales and marketing roles and will be part of Sony’s plan to downsize 10,000 employees.
