A few days ago, it was reported that NIO has laid off and adjusted a number of departments, involving after-sales customer service, PT energy department, NIO House operation, after-sales stores and terminal sales teams. The company provided compensation and job transfer plans.
According to employees familiar with the matter, the rate of layoffs is about 10%, which varies from region to region. For example, the total number of URFellow department teams in Shanghai is about 80 people, and the layoffs have been optimized by 7 to 8 people, with a layoff rate of 10%; The UR Fellow team in Shenzhen has laid off 50% of its staff. Some employees who accepted the N+1 compensation package took as little as 20 minutes from the time they were notified to the time the handover was completed.
The reason for this layoff may be related to redundant organizational structure and low personnel efficiency. Previously, 36Kr Automobile had mentioned in a post on the evening of March 10 that many departments of NIO, including the mobile phone business, will streamline their organizations and reduce personnel based on their annual business goals in the near future.
