Vox Media laid off several more employees on Monday, adding to a recent wave of job cuts at the parent company of outlets like New York magazine, The Verge and Vulture, TheWrap has learned.
A person with knowledge of the situation told TheWrap that mostly director-level employees were hit by the latest reductions.
A rep for Vox Media did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
Monday’s layoffs came less than a week after 12 Vox employees lost their jobs; those cuts solely affected the Vox.com editorial brand and not other Vox Media properties. In December, other Vox Media layoffs left Thrillist essentially shuttered, according to the company’s union, with many staffers at fellow Vox Media sites Eater and Pop Sugar also impacted.
The year has gotten off to an inauspicious start for media employees, after an already ugly 2024 in which nearly 15,000 media jobs were eliminated. Last week, The Washington Post cut about 100 employees and the Huffington Post let go of 30 workers.
