Grammarly lays off 23% of employees (230 people) but says it was not for cost cutting reasons because their financial position is strong.
Instead they need a different set of skills and capabilities in the age of the AI enabled workplace. Same difference?

@carnage4life I’d be interested in hearing what all these incompatible skillsets are between their laid off employees and, presumably, the skills now required by Grammarly. If this wasn’t about cost-cutting, I would think they’d want to make some kind of effort to retrain their existing workforce instead of causing the morale and reputation hits that accompany layoffs.
So, what skills does Grammarly need/not need now?
@freeagent They need machine learning algo trainers.
