Some Singapore staff affected in Shopee's latest job cuts

This comes as some staff in Singapore were informed that they were part of further layoffs on Monday.

The Straits Times understands that a low single-digit percentage of Shopee workers are affected, although it is not clear how many of the platform's regional markets will be hit in this latest cost-cutting exercise.

Shopee's layoffs include employees in human resources, regional operations, marketing, and product and engineering, The Business Times reported on Monday.

It also cited sources saying that some workers, including those in Singapore and China, began receiving e-mail notices of their layoffs shortly after department-wide town-hall sessions on Monday.
