Delivery app Getir axing 14% of employees, NYC workers outraged.

Rapid delivery app Getir plans to cut 14% of its global workforce but has not provided details on which employees will be affected or when the layoffs will occur. This has left New York City store and delivery workers anxious and angry. The decision comes amid a challenging year for the rapid delivery app industry, which has seen several companies, including Gorillas and GoPuff, make significant layoffs. Some of the companies have also faced criticism from local politicians for flouting traffic and zoning laws. Getir operates in nine countries, including the US, UK, and France, and currently has an estimated 5,000 to 10,000 employees.
