Getir, which is among the companies that successfully represent our country abroad, took an important step for the contraction operation in its global operations.
Announcing its new services such as bringbitaksi, fetchtool and fetch in the past period, the company was highly appreciated. However, with this decision, it is estimated that it is now turning to shrinkage instead of growth. Because it will terminate its agreements with thousands of workers.
Getir can lay off more than 4,400 employees in 9 countries!
First of all, let us state that this decision taken by Getir is not only valid in our country. In other words, there is a general downsizing and layoffs for its global operations. In addition, it is not yet known whether this decision will be valid in all 9 countries where the company operates.

Although the company has recently received an investment of $ 768 million at a valuation of $ 11.8 billion (market value of $ 12 billion), it is stated that it has temporarily suspended its expansion plans. In addition, the number of employees will decrease by 14 percent.
Currently operating in 9 countries in total, including Turkey, England, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal and the USA, the company employs more than 32 thousand people. After the decision, it is stated that a layoff plan was made for up to 4,480 people.
It should be noted that this situation is not only specific to Fetch. Because we see that its biggest rivals in Europe make similar decisions. For example, Gorillas said it laid off 300 jobs. Sweden’s Klarna has also announced that it will lay off 10 percent of its workers.
