Yahoo to lay off 20% of its workers
[10 News] Learn to EBT
Yahoo announced on Thursday that it would cut 20% of its workforce by the end of the year.

Axios first reported the news. The cuts to the company's total workforce are expected to impact about 1,600 people.

Yahoo CEO Jim Lanzone said the cuts will be “tremendously beneficial for the profitability of Yahoo overall."

Axios reported that Yahoo is profitable, and generates about $8 billion a year in revenue.

A growing number of media and tech companies have been taking measures to cut costs as digital advertiser spending becomes more uncertain around the globe.

#6 Verizon acquired yahoo in 2017 and still owns 10%

the rest of yahoo is owned by a consortium of investment funds

Guess that depends on whether they are laying off cogs or HR blobfish.
