8,510 employees as of June 30, 2022
7,381 employees as of September 30, 2021
3,060 employees as of March 31, 2020 (!)
With an 11% reduction it looks like they're going back to a number similar to what they had a year ago.

In recent years it has made several acquisitions of companies that were not previously based in the US. Maybe it is a broad trend across the industry for tech workers that used to work for smaller local companies coming under the umbrella of large US-based corporations?

- aprdm 4y agoThat's pretty insane.
