Nextdoor (NYSE:KIND) layoffs are on the way as the social network company prepares to cut its headcount by 25%!
These job cuts will result in roughly 200 layoffs at Nextdoor. The company notes that these cuts are part of a cost reduction plan that should save it $60 million annually.
Sarah Friar, CEO of Nextdoor, said the following about the layoffs:
“While our opportunity and belief in the transformative power of community remains unwavering, and our business is financially strong with a healthy balance sheet, we must follow through on our commitment to our shareholders. This means right sizing our business and aligning our team and other expenses with our near term revenue expectations. We expect that these actions will position us to reach quarterly free cash flow breakeven by the end of 2025.”
