News and lifestyle media company theSkimm laid off 12 employees in late November, or roughly 10% of its workforce, in the latest of a series of headcount reductions sweeping the media industry, according to three people familiar with the situation.
A representative for theSkimm confirmed the news.
The cuts mark the third round of layoffs theSkimm has conducted this year, following reductions of a similar scope in January and April. The cuts primarily affected sales and sales support staff, although a handful of roles in finance and administration were also impacted.
theSkimm now joins a host of digital media companies—including Condé Nast, The Washington Post, Vox Media and G/O Media—that have laid off staff in recent weeks.
