AnswerLab, a user experience (UX) research firm, has conducted its first layoff in its 18-year history, eliminating 17% of its positions due to economic pressures from clients. The restructuring, announced by CEO Amy Buckner Chowdhry, resulted in a number of employees being let go, though the exact number of affected individuals was not specified. The company, which operates in the technology and professional services industry, emphasized its continued commitment to its mission and clients, noting plans to develop new enterprise research products this year.
