Grubhub Announces Job Cuts Amidst Strategic Shifts, Trim Workforce by 15% to Stay Competitive

On Monday, Just Eat Takeaway.com NV (OTCPK: JTKWY) owned food-ordering and delivery marketplace, Grubhub, disclosed its decision to reduce headcount by around 15%.

The job cut will impact around 400 roles at the company.

The move reflects Grubhub's initiative to decrease operating and staff expenses and stay competitive in the industry.

Earlier, Just Eat stated that it is considering a strategic partner for Grubhub, or a partial or full sale of the business, per WSJ.

Price Action: JTKWY shares are trading at $2.77 on Tuesday.
