Yahoo:in the way staff cuts

Yahoo has officially announced that it has begun internal restructuring operations, the umpteenth American company brought forward in recent years, with a first block of the layoffs announced during the past weeks.

The recipe is always the same: reduce costs by a significant reduction in the number of employees, this time with a cut of 15% of staff worldwide. The first 107 employees affected by the company will come out the next April 11th and will presumably be followed by others with similar capacity announcements expected in the coming weeks.

Marissa Mayer, the company's CEO, confirmed during the analysis of the financial results for the fourth quarter of 2015 the American company as the plan to reduce the number of employees is part of a strategy for revitalizing the company's activity linked to web so. It remains to understand how the only cut in the number of employees will lead to a revival of the tools and services that Yahoo offers its online users, and that this is not just a way to reduce operating costs.

At June 30, 2015 Yahoo pointed to employ about 11,000 employees within itself, a figure to be compared with about 12,500 of December 31, 2014 divided between employees and so-called fixed-term contractors, we figure that we can match professionals working almost exclusively for the company. From these data, an expected reduction of at least 1,500 employees in this new, we could also say another cut in the number of employees for the American company.
