BOSTON Independent i-shop The Barbarian Group late last week cut 10-15 employees, mainly from its Boston office, according to sources.

The cut amounts to roughly 10-15 percent of the agency’s staff and the layoffs were made across all departments, sources said.

A Barbarian Group representative confirmed that cuts took place based on “restructuring,” but would offer no further comment.

Sources said the move reflects the fact that, despite being technically headquartered in Boston, the firm has handled an increasing amount of assignments from its New York digs in recent months.
