The report cited an impacted employee as saying that they received "little to no severance, after getting a more than 50 per cent salary cut in November in order to 'ensure' our jobs to come".
The layoffs were meant to be announced by the company on Wednesday, but one employee told TechCrunch that "they accidentally rolled out the severance payslips too early."
According to Motherboard, the digital mortgage company's board of directors said in an email that the company has also hired an outside firm to "do a leadership and cultural assessment".
