The post follows when recently sacked over 1000 employees amid cost-cutting measures. The majority of the layoffs are likely to impact employees from the lending business.
The layoffs are currently impacting over 10 percent of the company’s entire workforce. The company reportedly wants to save 10-15% of staff costs over the current fiscal year.
“Our core business of payment may see manpower increase by 15,000 in the coming year,” the spokesperson said.
“We are transforming our operations with AI-powered automation, eliminating repetitive tasks and roles to drive efficiency across growth and costs, resulting in a slight reduction in our workforce within operations and marketing”, the spokesperson informed.
