Lucid revealed in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it would cut about 18% of employees who remain after a 12% cut announced in February. As of the end of last year, Lucid had 9,000 employees, according to SEC filings, suggesting that more than 1,400 employees will be laid off in this round of cuts.<\/p>\n

While the first round of layoffs in February had little effect in Arizona, with some 300 workers trimmed at the company’s Bay Area headquarters in California, this time is different.<\/p>\n
