Blue Origin, the space company owned by Jeff Bezos, is laying off approximately 10% of its workforce, totaling around 1,000 employees due to increased bureaucracy as a result of fast growth. CEO David Limp indicated that this restructuring aims to better align roles with the company's key priorities, including upcoming projects like the New Glenn rocket and planned Moon landing in 2025. Despite layoffs, Limp expressed confidence in Blue Origin's future, stating they would continue to invest and hire in critical areas to enhance customer service.
The makeup of our organization must change to ensure our roles are best aligned with executing these priorities.
I am extremely confident in the enormous opportunities in front of us and have never been more optimistic about our mission.
