Wayfair fires 870 employees, or nearly 5% of its worldwide workforce

Wayfair reported a jump in sales during the start of the pandemic as people remained at home and were interested in refurbishing their space and buying online, but it has since announced the layoff of 870 workers. According to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the online furniture and home décor retailer’s “staff reduction” impacts 5% of its worldwide workforce and 10% of its corporate team.
