What departments are affected?
Not quite sure but this is what Niraj had to say - “Broadly, the changes we’re making fall into three categories: 1) thinning out management layers to enable team members to focus on execution, 2) aligning our work better with our strategic priorities, and 3) adjusting areas that have simply grown faster than our current revenue trajectory can support. We looked carefully at each decision.”
