The company said it was simultaneously creating new positions requiring different skills, as it shifted its focus to serving Global 1500 enterprises and reduced account manager loads from as many as 80 accounts to a maximum of 10. Product lines that no longer fit the new strategy, including in-room conference cameras, were also eliminated. The timing coincided with a leadership change: CEO Alan Masarek announced his retirement, with Patrick Dennis set to take over on September 1. Industry analyst Zeus Kerravala noted that Dennis brings stronger "execution chops" and that Avaya now needs to "put up some wins" rather than continuing to discuss transformation plans. https://layoffcheck.com/companies/avaya#2023-01 https://layoffcheck.com/companies/avaya#2023-01-2401 Tue, 17 Jan 2023 12:00:00 GMT Avaya reported a workforce reduction in Durham in January 17, 2023.
