Reading the ZeniMax Media WARN Record
ZeniMax Media has 3 WARN Act filings in this dataset, covering 265 workers between Jul 3, 2025 and Aug 18, 2025. As with any WARN count, the true figure runs somewhat higher (why). By total workers affected, ZeniMax Media ranks #40 of 438 tracked employers in MD. Among the 8 other Information Technology employers with recorded WARN filings, the median is 3,450 affected workers -- ZeniMax Media's 265 sits well below that group's typical scale. Filings span 2 states, most concentrated in MD (Information Technology), so more than one state workforce agency and mini-WARN threshold applied depending on where each notice was filed.
Averaging 88 workers per notice, ZeniMax Media's filings fall into a pattern that suggests targeted team or department cuts that still crossed the WARN reporting threshold. The 3 notices on file represent distinct events, each triggering a 60-day advance warning obligation that fed into state rapid-response systems.
Workers on MD-based ZeniMax Media notices should contact the MD workforce agency directly, response teams, severance negotiation guidance, and TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance) screening move fastest in the days immediately following a notice.

This record reflects filed notices only; subsequent hiring, rescinded closures, or facility reopenings are not tracked by WARN disclosures.
