Expedia, Impinj Cut Staff

Gregory T. Huang3/27/09

Bellevue, WA-based Expedia and Seattle-based Impinj have had layoffs in the past week, according to reports in TechFlash here and here. Expedia isn’t saying how many positions were cut, but the news comes on the heels of another layoff last month. Impinj laid off 23 employees last week, or about 18 percent of its staff of 130 (the headcount Xconomy reported a month ago).
