Yahoo Trims 15 Percent Of Workforce

[HardOCP News]

Yahoo has announced the first round of layoffs as it trims its workforce by fifteen percent. Unfortunately the layoffs do not include the CEO and other top brass.

Yahoo Inc announced Wednesday it will lay off 107 employees in the first of what is expected to be more than 1,500 job cuts. The layoffs take effect April 11 and affected employees received 60-day advance notice of the move, Yahoo said in a notice filed with the California Employment Development Department. The layoffs were spread across a range of departments and job titles.

Gotta figure that this is Mayer's last chance to do something before she's forced out.

I hope they get it together. The new home page is a dial down for the brain and their mail is effing up. Having had yahoo mail since it started and never having had a problem, ever, I am loathe to get another email address.

And that's another exit strategy, probably the best that she and Yahoo could hope for right now.
