Expedia failed to report the exact number of employees who were let go, as of this reporting, but it impacted approximately 3% of the company’s workforce. The employees affected worked in engineering and other departments.
“As part of a broader effort to strengthen our business and position the company for long-term growth, we are restructuring parts of our organization,” Expedia said in a statement. “These are difficult but necessary decisions to ensure we sharpen our focus on strategic priorities and remain well-positioned to deliver for customers and partners.”
