Software-as-a-service (SaaS) based logistics management company FarEye, has laid off around 250 employees at the time of their appraisal.

The company said that the softening of market conditions and the restructuring of the team have reduced the size of their team.

 “With the softness in market conditions, in the year ahead, we are focusing on our efforts and aligning resources in areas that drive maximum value for our customers while addressing their key challenges around operational efficiencies, cost optimisation, and delivery experience’’, said, Kushal Nahata, cofounder and CEO, FarEye.

Kushal also said that the company is strengthening core competencies, increasing its focus on product differentiation and automation, and optimizing the effort required to manage operations.

“This strategic realignment has resulted in the need to restructure a part of our team. For a company like FarEye that has always kept its people at the core, and believes that our people are our strongest asset, it has been a difficult period. We had to make some hard decisions to reduce our team across operations and services’’, he added.

“Our priority right now is to take care of those who do have to part with us, and in addition to ensuring their rightful benefits and entitlements, we are proactively working to help them with job support via our outplacement services and our network. They are some of the best in business; I deeply value their remarkable talent and passion and believe that they will be a great addition to any organisation,” Kushal also said.
