WeWork to lay off 2,400 employees in SoftBank revampWeWork将在软银重组中裁员2400人Cash-strapped WeWork on Thursday announced it’s laying off or transferring about 30 percent of its workforce or 4,400 people.

资金紧张的WeWork周四宣布，将裁员或转移约30%的员工，即4400人。

Of those people, 2,400 who worked directly for the co-working company, will be laid off with four-to-six months severance, based on their tenure, two sources said.

两名消息人士称，其中有2,400名曾直接在联合工作公司的员工被解雇，并根据任期获得四到六个月的遣散费。

New York-based WeWork reportedly wanted to start layoffs last month but didn’t have the money to cover severance.

That was before Japanese investment firm SoftBank came to the rescue on Oct.

据报道，总部位于纽约的WeWork上个月就想开始裁员，但没有钱支付遣散费。

WeWork will also be outsourcing 1,000 people who work on its janitorial team to an outside vendor that will clean WeWork spaces.

The layoffs come amid probes into the company, including allegations of self-dealing by WeWork’s former CEO Adam Neumann, who stepped down in September after failing to take the company public.

此次裁员正值该公司受到调查之际，其中包括WeWork前首席执行长诺伊曼(Adam Neumann)的自营交易指控。

诺伊曼去年9月因未能将公司上市而辞职。

As The Post reported Thursday, WeWork’s latest headache centers on allegations that it rubber-stamped a $42.

5 million acquisition of startup Spacious in August by demanding its outside accountants OK the deal without reviewing the financial statements.

据 华盛顿邮报　(The Post)周四报道，WeWork最近一件让人头疼的事是，该公司被指在8月份批准了以4,250万美元收购初创公司千居(千居)的交易，要求其外部会计师在不审查财务报表的情况下批准这笔交易。

The chief legal officer in charge of WeWork’s acquisitions, Jen Berrent, and the chief counsel who signs off on them, Jared DeMatteis, will keep their jobs, sources said.

消息人士称，WeWork负责收购的首席法律官Jen Berrent和签署收购协议的首席法律顾问Jared DeMatteis将留任。
