Low-code software platform Airtable lays off over 250 employees

Airtable, a low-code platform for building collaborative apps, has laid off more than 250 employees, or 20 percent of its workforce, across business development, engineering, and other teams.

The impacted employees will get at least 16 weeks of severance pay, accelerated equity vesting, and support from an immigration counsellor if on a visa.

“We’ve rapidly expanded and executed on multiple fronts. At the time, I believed we could successfully pursue all of them in parallel,” said Airtable founder and CEO Howie Liu in an email to employees.
