CEO at Sennheiser
Head sent the following email to Sennheiser employees earlier today.
Greetings Hearers!
I'm sure we all know that times are tough, and we must all make certain sacrifices in order to ensure the continued success of Sennheiser. As part of that, I regret to inform you that 10% of the workforce must be laid off.
I can assure you that the administration did everything they could to prevent this, but unfortunately, I must take the fall.
I know this is hard to hear, but the reality is that Sennheiser's gaming rooms have become too expensive for the company to maintain. While I know that the extra time spent in the game rooms has been a nice respite for many of you, it has unfortunately come at a great cost to the company. And, as the CEO, I have made the tough decision to let go of this extra expense.
I understand that this change comes as a shock to many of us. Believe me when I say that I had no other choice but to make this decision. I can assure you that the administration did everything they could to prevent this, but unfortunately, I must take the fall.
I want to thank each and every one of you for your dedication, hard work, and understanding during this difficult time. I hope that you all understand that this change is vitally important to the future of Sennheiser.
Take care, and always remember that we are in this together.
