LinkedIn, the social network focused on business, employment and enterprise use, announced Monday that it will eliminate 668 jobs from its engineering, product, talent and finance teams. This is the second such cutback so far this year.
The Sunnyvale-based company said in a brief statement that “Talent changes are a difficult, but necessary and regular part of managing our business.”
“The changes we shared with our team today will result in a reduction of approximately 668 roles across our engineering, product, talent and finance teams,” he continued.
He added that while they adapt their organizational structures and streamline their decision-making, they will continue to invest in strategic priorities for their future and to ensure they continue to offer value to their members and customers.
