軟件開發商歐特克計劃裁員1,150人，約占員工人數的13%。因為其重心將從預付費轉向推動用戶訂購。

歐特克于上周二宣布了上述裁員消息。公司盤后交易價大跌10.4%，跌至116.10美元。

Autodesk當天聲明稱：“Autodesk希望通過重組精簡架構，重新平衡公司資源，更好地配合公司的發展重心。”

歐特克旗下由知名三維繪圖軟件AutoCAD等等，在建筑、工程和制造業公司應用廣泛。歐特克希望鼓勵用戶選擇包月訂購服務，可以降低部分初始成本。

總部位于舊金山的歐特克表示，裁員將導致1.35億到1.49億美元成本。

除了宣布裁員，上周二歐特克還公布，今年第三季度營業收入同比增長5%，增至5.15億美元，當季凈虧損額由1.428億美元下降至1.198億美元。

上周二的裁員計劃距上一次裁員并不久，之前是2016年2月。當時裁員925人，占員工人數的10%。(財富中文網)

Software maker Autodesk plans to cut 1,150 jobs, or 13% of its workforce, as it shifts focus to selling its products on a subscription basis instead of mostly charging for them upfront.

Shares in the company fell 10.4% in after hours trading on Tuesday to $116.10 following the announcement.

“Through the restructuring, Autodesk seeks to streamline the organization and re-balance resources to better align with the company’s priorities,” Autodesk said in a statement.

Autodesk’s software like its 3-D imaging AutoCAD is widely used by architecture, construction, and manufacturing firms. The plan is to get customers to pay monthly subscription fees for the software, eliminating some of the initial cost.

Autodesk, based outside San Francisco, said the job cuts would cost it $135 million to $149 million.

In addition to announcing the layoffs on Tuesday, the company reported 5% growth in third-quarter revenue to $515 million. Losses narrowed to $119.8 million from $142.8 million.

The cuts disclosed on Tuesday follow a previous layoff, announced in February 2016. Those cuts impacted 925 workers, or 10% of the overall workforce.
