MATIC Drops 6% as Polygon Labs Slashes Headcount by 20% As part of a larger consolidation first announced on January 11, Polygon Labs today announced it would be laying off 100 employees. Polygon Labs, the group of companies behind the eponymously-named blockchain network, announced it would be cutting its headcount by 20%, per a blog post. The 100 employees that have been laid off will receive three months of severance pay. "Earlier this year, we consolidated multiple business units under Polygon Labs. As part of this process, we’re sharing the difficult news that we’ve reduced our team by 20% impacting multiple teams and about 100 positions," read the post.
