Microsoft-owned LinkedIn, which has 20,000 employees, has grown revenue each quarter during the last year, but it joins other major tech companies including its parent in laying off workers.
More than half of the layoffs will affect staff at its non-billable corporate functions, the IT company said, sending its shares up more than 4% before the bell.
Pandemic-driven enthusiasm around digitisation & technology drove companies to go on hiring spree, which came to screeching halt towards later part of 2022, as workforce reductions started.
The company said it would pay 16 weeks of base pay plus two additional weeks for every year of service as a part of the severance package and all remaining paid time off.
The number of layoffs in the first half of 2021 went up to 32,000. Most of these job cuts were at Disney’s parks and experiences, which were forced shut due to the pandemic.
Good work is simply not enough to stay employed, especially during a crisis. These are the times when your professional relationships play an important role.
Layoffs are likely to take place next month from the cloud kitchens across 10 tier 1 and tier 2 cities, which operate Swiggy-owned Homely and The Bowl Company.
If there is bad blood between the CEC and the Opposition leaders, it will shake the people’s faith in election results. It’s the worst thing that could happen to Indian democracy.
Indian toymakers are now exploring new markets, but they want govt to negotiate a trade deal with US soon, introduce incentives and subsidies to make the industry more competitive.
The deal, believed to be paid for by a third nation, will give the Sudanese Armed Forces access to light attack aircraft, engines, armoured fighting vehicles & unmanned aerial vehicles.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
