Robinhood Markets 周二宣布计划让另外 23% 的员工失业——就在这家基于应用程序的经纪公司解雇 9% 员工的几个月后。
周二，Robinhood 表示将裁员 780 人，并宣布一名主要高管离职。
首席执行官 Vlad Tenev 在一份声明中表示，裁员主要集中在营销、运营和项目管理职能部门。

根据 Tenev 的说法，“宏观环境的恶化，通货膨胀率达到 40 年来的峰值，伴随着广泛的加密货币市场崩溃”是裁员背后的推动力。
最近的终止代表了曾经繁荣的在线经纪业务快速下滑的延续。

Robinhood 此前曾在 4 月份终止了其 9% 员工的雇佣合同。 “我想承认这些类型的变化是多么令人不安，”Tenev 说。
去年 7 月，Robinhood 的首次公开募股 (IPO) 受到大流行交易激增的推动。该公司应用程序的月活跃用户急剧下降，其股票暴跌。
在 COVID-19 引发的危机期间，该公司友好的用户界面使其在年轻投资者中很受欢迎，这些投资者可以在家中交易加密货币和 GameStop Corp. 等股票。
Tenev 表示，他们认为他们在 2020 年和 2021 年观察到的市场环境会比他们实际持续的时间更长，当一切都崩溃时，他全权负责。 “这是我的责任，”他承认道。
首席执行官还指出，“现实情况是他们过度雇用，特别是在其中一些支持职能部门。”

在周二的另一份文件中，Robinhood 宣布其首席产品官 Aparna Chennapragada 离职，并关闭了两个办事处。
据估计，遣散费和福利将使公司损失 30 到 4000 万美元，而关闭办公室将使公司损失 15,000 到 20,000 美元的收入。
