Jeff Bezos’ private space company Blue Origin is bracing for layoffs, just one month after launching a new rocket, according to a report.
Dave Limp, CEO of Blue Origin, is expected to discuss the workforce changes at a Thursday all-hands meeting, the outlet reported.
Blue Origin has been hoping to increase the number of New Glenn flights, the outlet reported.
“We have a lot of work to do ahead of us, and we have to get to a cadence where we’re flying very often, got to get the manufacturing to a higher cadence,” he said.
At a conference in Washington, D.C. this week, Limp called the launch a “good first step,” noting that more work is on the horizon.
