Growing pains at venture-backed Moogsoft lead to layoffs
Eight months after bringing in a $40 million Series D, Moogsoft's co-founder and chief executive officer Phil Tee confirmed to TechCrunch that the IT incident management startup had shed 18 percent of its workforce, or just over 30 employees. The layoffs took place at the end of October; shortly after, Moogsoft announced two executive hires. Among the additions was Amer Deeba, a former Qualys executive accused of insider trading by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
