San Francisco: US-based high-tech speaker and audio technology company Sonos has made an announcement to reduce its workforce by seven percent, which equates to approximately 130 employees. This decision comes as a response to the challenging economic conditions faced by the company.
Sonos has also revealed plans to decrease its real estate footprint and reassess certain program expenditures.
