‘Shocked and heartbroken’ | Kaseya: 150 employee cuts were performance-based terminations, not layoffs

IT software giant Kaseya has clarified that job cuts to over 150 employees were not lay-offs, but were, in fact, performance-based terminations.

Kaseya plans to replace workers, the majority of whom worked in the company’s sales division.

“There were no layoffs,” said Xavier Gonzalez, Kaseya’s chief communications officer, in a statement. “We had performance-based terminations, and all those roles will be backfilled.”

Gonzalez adds that Kaseya will aim to hire “dedicated professionals who will prioritize our customers' success and better align with our company goals.”
