Yahoo disclosed plans on Tuesday to layoff around 140 employees in the latest in a series of job cuts.
The reduction comes a month after the Web portal let around 600 workers go as part of a strategy by Carol A. Bartz, the chief executive, to pare costs and reinvigorate a stagnant business. Previous rounds of layoffs took place in 2009 and 2008.
Tuesday’s cuts were focused on Yahoo’s marketing team, according to a person briefed on the matter who was not authorized to speak on the record.
Bartz seems to be unable to stop the bleeding.
