Viz Contracts Again

28144Viz_logo-sm

Following an unspecified number of staff layoffs in February 2009, Viz Media has again laid off a number of employees. Publishers Weekly reports that Viz Media laid off as many as 55 employees at its San Francisco headquarters and closed its New York branch that employed 5 people. Viz Media has confirmed a mass layoff, but has not confirmed the exact number of employees laid off. If Publishers Weekly’s numbers are correct, the downsize would account for roughly 40% of Viz Media’s staff.
