I thought they were talking about Lattice Semiconductor for a good 5 minutes. I figured a hardware company with just over 700 employees was pretty damn lean, and didn't understand why they were downsizing.
Turns out no, this a a cloud based HR platform - which made me balk at the fact they had just over 700 employees.
- myself248 4y agoSame. TIL Lattice Semiconductor doesn't own lattice.com, they're latticesemi.com
- nine_k 4y agoA missed opportunity to use semilattice.com %) (But maybe some math nerd had registered it even earlier.)
- reversethread 4y agoSo did I. Keep in mind Lattice Semiconductor is also incredibly lean, with only around 900 employees.
- ntimcan 4y agoWhen Lattice semi produce so much value from 900 staff, and this lattice so little from 700 - the layoffs are needed, clearly.
- __derek__ 4y agoPresumably a lot of that is sales/support. Their customers are start-up HR "departments" (i.e. one or two people who worked as an HR generalist at a bigger company).
- skrtskrt 4y agoWe use Lattice and it’s uh, perfectly fine but has all the functionality of a Django demo project. I’m sure they have to put a lot of employee time into integrations and custom onboarding from other platforms, etc. But its core is literally just text forms to write peer reviews and to organize OKRs
- lizknope 4y agoYeah, I know people that work at Lattice Semiconductor. I had never heard of this software company with the same name.
