Mozilla Foundation Restructures, Cutting 30% of Workforce

The nonprofit eliminates its advocacy and global programs divisions to enhance focus and agility amid ongoing changes in the tech landscape.

The layoffs impact approximately 30% of the Mozilla Foundation's staff, reducing its workforce from around 120 employees.
The decision marks the second round of layoffs at Mozilla this year, following a reduction in February within the Mozilla Corporation.
Mozilla Foundation's Executive Director, Nabiha Syed, stated the cuts aim to create a unified and powerful narrative for the organization.
The restructuring involves ending long-standing advocacy and global programs to concentrate on a more open and equitable technical future.
Mozilla Corporation, distinct from the Foundation, continues to focus on developing the Firefox browser and other technologies.
