Flexe, a warehouse provider, is undergoing another significant reduction in its workforce, amounting to a 38% cut. This news comes just months after the company reduced its workforce by about a third, as stated by CEO and co-founder Karl Siebrecht in communication with Supply Chain Dive.

While specific details regarding the headcount were not disclosed, Siebrecht noted that the company is not commenting beyond the information already confirmed with the Puget Sound Business Journal.

The decision for the workforce reduction has been attributed to the ongoing market volatility in the logistics industry, largely influenced by macroeconomic uncertainty. Despite having a strong cash position, the company emphasizes the importance of preserving its ability to continue investing in the business, as mentioned in a company statement reported by the Puget Sound Business Journal.

Several former employees have taken to LinkedIn to express solidarity and offer encouragement to their colleagues affected by the layoffs. The positions impacted by this decision span a range of roles, including engineers and analysts, as per a Flexe employee.

As of recent data from its LinkedIn profile, Flexe employs nearly 350 people. The company has been recognized for its rapid growth, ranking at 236 in Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 in 2023. This ranking reflects a 612% growth in Flexe’s fiscal-year revenue over a three-year period, according to Fast 500 data.

Flexe is among several companies in the logistics and transportation sector, including forwarders and warehouse providers, facing workforce adjustments due to reduced demand. This trend was further evidenced in October when Convoy, another Seattle-based digital brokerage, ceased its operations as part of cost-cutting measures following unsuccessful attempts to find a buyer in a challenging freight market.
