Not sure how less people working at a place makes meeting deadlines or roadmaps in this case better.
But here we are up is down and black is white because some corpofascist says so.
I imagine it's to offset hiring in other positions. Lay off 33 people who aren't needed so you can hire 20 people in more critical positions while still being seen as reducing headcount (something they love to see, layoffs make them hard), but at the same time speeding things along on some project that needs it.
If that was part of the release then it’s kinda double shitty since you could have spared some jobs. But they did not. Instead 33 people get the boot so their quarterly outlook seems better. F-these scum for this type of behaviour, seriously.
