Jeff was hired to a general managerial role for the "games division" of Red Ventures, which leads me to believe they are going to consolidate their platforms and further reduce redundancies. That's why they let go of the dead weight in Abby/Ben, and Alex/Vinny were probably ask d to move back to San Fran to keep their jobs, to avoid having to pay for 2 different offices/studios.

This is all conjecture, but so far all of the facts are lining up. They likely had a 6 month non compete when they signed on to RV (maybe another reason why Abby left) with the decision to close GBEast coming after they signed on.

If I were a betting man I would say Jeff eventually leaves too once his contract is up. This is major deja vu to the founding of Giantbomb originally. What will be interesting is to see if they spin off and do their own independent thing, or move to another company that wants to get more into games coverage.
