The Update On The Rogers Layoffs Is That Roughly 400 Employees Are Gone

Yesterday, I posted a story about Rogers laying off staff. Now to be clear, I found out about this earlier in the day, but I waited until I had confirmation that this was actually happening before posting anything. Now I have had additional facts about the sitaution via a source within the company who asked me not to identify them. Here’s what I have confirmed:

  • Roughly 400 people were let go by Rogers.
  • All the people who were let go worked in mostly the online chat support group. But some customer service people were also let go.
  • Something that I have yet to confirm is that members of Rogers social media team have been let go. If you are a member of that team and would like to speak to me about this anonymously, please reach out to me to do so.

Seeing as these are customer facing cuts, it’s a safe bet that customers will be impacted. But this might not be the end of it because another source who didn’t want me to identify them has said that the results of these cuts are not going to be the only ones, and that there are more cuts coming. I’ll be watching this closely because if that’s true, it may not be a good thing for Rogers customers.
