The firm recently cut its staff -- though they won't say by how much. We
heard a rumor that it was upwards of 15, but brand manager Gina Leo
said that wasn't right. She declined to clarify, then forwarded this
statement from Populous' board of directors, which she said would be the
last word on the matter:
"We are continually evaluating market conditions to position our company for long-term success. Because
certain projects have been put on hold due to current economic
conditions, we made the decision to reduce our workforce accordingly.
Our expectations for the future remain high, and these staff
adjustments will allow us to maintain a healthy, well positioned design
practice."
Ah, public relations, you are indeed an art. We kill so that we may live.
