C.H Robinson Slashes US Sales Team
Truck brokerage C.H. Robinson reduced its U.S. sales team by approximately 80 employees on Thursday. This information comes from anonymous sources familiar with the company's actions.
These layoffs follow a reported trend of decreased emphasis on the salesforce in favor of technological solutions. The source estimates the current number of C.H. Robinson's sales representatives focused solely on selling freight services to motor carriers to be around 70 nationwide.
It's important to note that this headcount excludes business development and account management positions, which some other brokerages might include in their sales team figures.
