The DTC brand — which had a round of layoffs earlier this year that mostly impacted its tech employees – let go of more employees on Tuesday, according to a Modern Retail source who wished to remain anonymous. In total, the company laid off about two dozen people. The company confirmed the news of the layoffs, but declined to share which departments have been affected.
As part of this internal restructuring, the company is currently hiring for over a dozen new positions that focus on retail, product, supply chain and wholesale distribution, including a vice president of wholesale. The company is also preparing for more retail openings, with new locations due in Brooklyn, N.Y. and Philadelphia this fall.
The news comes at the heels of Glossier’s announcement of its new Sephora partnership, marking the brand’s first wholesale expansion. The move is in line with the slew of DTC-first brands that have branched out to sell through established retailers.
