Upon being acquired by Pandora, Rdio admitted it would be shutting down and turning away subscribers. The future of Rdio’s team, which is allegedly between 140-180, was largely unknown as Pandora’s focus for the deal was on technology and not people; however, Pandora did state that “many” people from Rdio would be offered jobs. A recent WARN Report published by California’s Employment Development Department shows that Rdio laid off 123 people in San Francisco.
Rdio informed the state of the layoffs on November 18, two days after Pandora announced the acquisition. Affected employees will be relieved of their roles by December 31.
VentureBeat reached out to Pandora and the company said that around 100 Rdio employees have been offered jobs.
