CEO Announcement to the Netlify Team

Anyone have an idea of what percentage of the workforce affected? They already laid off 16% back in December. Since it's not mentioned in the blog post I fear it may be quite high.

Glassdoor reports Netlify as having 51-200 employees, so based on your 46 number this layoff affected anywhere between 23% and 90% of Netlify's employees. Pretty disturbing.

Closer to 300 according to LinkedIn.

In Dec '22 the company had 300 employees and laid off 48. I heard that they were down to 200 employees yesterday and laid off another 46.

Laid off 48 of that 200 bringing the new total to ~152 (so nearly 25%) or laid off 48 bringing the total down to 200 (~20%)?

Either way, pretty significant.

I was part of the first round in December where they laid off 48/300 or 16% I heard from a former colleague who was impacted by the latest round that they laid off 46 of roughly 200.
