What’s going on at Mozilla?

The Mozilla Foundation, the parent company of Firefox developer, Mozilla, has slashed approximately 30 per cent of its workforce as part of a restructuring.

“The Mozilla Foundation is reorganizing teams to increase agility and impact as we accelerate our work to ensure a more open and equitable technical future for us all,” the organization said in a statement to TechCrunch.

“That unfortunately means ending some of the work we have historically pursued and eliminating associated roles to bring more focus going forward.”

Executive Director Nabiha Syed added that the foundation’s major divisions—advocacy and global programs—are “no longer a part of our structure.”

It remains unclear if any Canadian employees working for Mozilla Foundation or at Mozilla are affected by the latest workforce reduction.
