HTC merges VR and smartphone departments in the US, lays off employees in the process

Despite being far from bad, the HTC U11 couldn't help the Taiwanese company in avoiding financial deficit
HTC is definitely not in its best shape, but things seem to be getting even worse. Just a mere week after Chialin Chang resigned as president of HTC's smartphone business, the Taiwanese company has reportedly laid off a big part of its US team, leaving only employees responsible for the company's global affairs.
HTC explained the reason behind the employee layoff, saying the company has combined the VR and smartphone departments in every region. "In doing so, there have been some employee reductions to align the businesses and empower the teams to share more resources", as reported by an HTC spokesperson for Digital Trends.
