The Washington Post is instructing employees to stay home on Wednesday and attend a Zoom webinar ahead of widely expected layoffs.
“We will be announcing significant actions across the company today. We are asking everyone to stay home this morning for a Zoom webinar at 8:30 a.m. ET to share details. We will be sending a detailed invite later this morning. Please make every effort to join,” executive editor Matt Murray and human resources chief Wayne Connell wrote.
