He had said in a statement that the company is going to cut employees in its management, but at that time he did not disclose the number of employees who would be the total retrenchment. Significantly, before this, Gap had laid off 500 employees in September. According to the data released by the company, by January 2023, a total of 95,000 employees work in the company.
