Growth, as the source summarises it

ZeniMax has experienced significant headcount reductions as part of Microsoft's broader cost-cutting measures, including the closure of Tango Gameworks. The company has also been included in Microsoft's and CWA's labor neutrality agreement. Revenue from game subscriptions like Xbox Game Pass has shown minimal growth over the past two years, which may have contributed to the studio closures.
