Zoomer sent the following email to Zoom employees earlier today.
Greetings Zoomers!
I want to start off by saying that I take full accountability for the difficult decision we've had to make - unfortunately, we've had to lay off 10% of our staff. It was not an easy decision to make and I understand how upsetting this news can be. However, it's important to understand why we were forced to take such difficult measures.
The cause? Parking. You heard me right - it was parking that forced our hand when it came to layoffs.
The cause? Parking. You heard me right - it was parking that forced our hand when it came to layoffs. After a thorough review of our expenses, we realized that the funds we spent on parking were unsustainable - not to mention the fact that they were cutting into our profits. After carefully analyzing the situation, we determined that the only solution was to reduce headcount - and thus, to lay off 10% of our employees.
I'm well aware that this is no small sacrifice - but it's absolutely necessary if we want to ensure the health of our company. I want to thank you all for your hard work and dedication - and I assure you that we are doing everything we can to ensure that our company continues to thrive in the years to come.
Sincerely,
Zoomer Zapper, CEO of Zoom
