Return of the Prodigal Mark Pincus

According to the BBC, Zynga founder Mark Pincus is returning to the company as CEO to the place of Don Mattrick, who joined the company in 2013.

In its latest report, Zynga said it lost $ 225.9 million (£ 152 million) in 2014, compared with $ 37 million a year earlier. Nevertheless, it is clear from the report that the mobile audience of igrodels continues to grow. Previously, the company was heavily dependent on the Facebook platform, which generates most of the traffic. Shares of the company rose by more than 3% at the close of US markets.

The official salary as always strikes the mind, Mark will work for one dollar.

I am inspired by our future products, which can raise the company to a new, previously unattainable level. Empires & Allies, Dawn of Titans and FarmVille: Harvest Swap come on the heels of one of our most popular applications - the Wizard of Oz Slots, which was launched last November.
