The firm, whose global team features software developers, security experts, lawyers, entrepreneurs, and others, will provide dismissed employees with two months of severance pay and career transition services.
Continued the statement:
All key operational aspects of the business are preserved to ensure the development and service of key products and solutions. Consensys remains focused on a core mission to enable developers and enterprises to deploy and operationalize blockchain-based products.
The February job losses were billed as part of a restructuring exercise that sought to separate the company’s software development from its venture activities. Jobs across human resources, finance, and marketing were affected while product teams were left intact.
Consensys said it is currently working on “crisis-related opportunities such as Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), emergency loans disbursement solutions, supply chains for personal protective equipment (PPE), and related identity solutions.”
In 2018, the company laid off over 1,000 employees, around 13% of its workforce at the time. Consensys was founded in 2014 and operates in more than 30 countries.
