IMozilla isimemezele ukuncishiswa okukhulu kwabasebenzi nokuvalwa kwehhovisi layo laseTaipei, eTaiwan. Balinganiselwa ku-250 abasebenzi abazodilizwas yenkampani kanye nabasebenzi abalinganiselwa kuma-60 bazodluliselwa kwamanye amaqembu.
Njengoba inkampani iqashe cishe abantu abangama-900, ukudilizwa emsebenzini kuzothinta cishe ama-30% wabasebenzi. Isizathu esiyinhloko sokwehliswa isifiso sokuhlala siphakathi kwenkinga ebangelwe ubhubhane lwe-COVID-19 coronavirus.
Isikhulu esiphezulu seMozilla, UMitchell Baker umemezele ukudilizwa kubhulogi, kungakapheli amahora ukwazisa abasebenzi abathintekile.
UBaker, owaba yi-CEO ngo-Ephreli, uchaze ukuthi iMozilla ibinenkinga yokuguqula izimali zayo nezwe langemuva kwe-COVID-19 nokuthi ibizama ukubheka kabusha izinsizakalo zebhizinisi ezintsha nezinenzuzo enkulu.
IMozilla izame ukwehlisa umthelela wezezimali kulo bhubhane "ngezindlela ezonga imali ngokushesha, njengokumisa ukuqashwa kwethu, ukunciphisa inani lempilo yethu, nokukhansela imihlangano yethu kuwo wonke umuntu," kusho uB Baker.
Kepha lokho bekunganele, futhi inhlangano engenzi nzuzo ithathe isinyathelo esinqala sokunciphisa abasebenzi bayo cishe ingxenye yesithathu.
"Sesikhulume ngesidingo soshintsho, kubandakanya namathuba okudilizwa kwabasebenzi, kusukela entwasahlobo," kusho uB Baker. "Namuhla lezi zinguquko ziba ngokoqobo."
Ngaphezu kokudilizwa, IMozilla ukuvala ukusebenza kwayo eTaipei, eTaiwan, futhi izodlulisela abasebenzi abangama-60 emaqenjini amasha.
Okokudilizwa, lezi zihlasela lonke iqembu labaphathi besongo ozinikele ekukhombeni nasekuhlaziyweni kwezigameko, kanye nokuba yingxenye yethimba lezokuphepha.
Ukudilizwa kulimaze iqembu labacwaningi beMozilla, owayethuthukisa imoto yeServo ebhalwe ngolimi lweRust futhi futhi lokhu kufaka bonke abasebenzi beqembu le-MDN (iMozilla Developer Network) nabo abaxoshiwe.
Kuyabonakala ukuthi ukubona ukubaluleka kwemodeli yakudala, okusho ukusatshalaliswa kwezinsizakalo zamahhala, ngaphansi kwezimo zamanje inkampani iphoqeleka ukuthi iqale ukufuna amanye amathuba ebhizinisi namanye amanani.
Kusele ukwakha imodeli yebhizinisi evumela ukuthi ibhalansi ephelele itholakale phakathi kwezinzuzo zomphakathi nezomphakathi namathuba wenzuzo yebhizinisi.
Enye yezindawo ozogxila kuzo inkampani ukuthuthukiswa kwemikhiqizo emisha ezokhiqiza imithombo eyengeziwe yemali engenayo.
Okokuqala, Kuhlelwe ukutshala imali kuzinsizakalo ezifana nePocket, i-VPN, ama-hubs, iWeb Assembly, ngaphezu kwemikhiqizo ehlobene nokuphepha nokuvikelwa kobumfihlo. Ngokwengeziwe, kuzokwakhiwa amaqembu amasha wokuklama nokuhlangenwe nakho komsebenzisi namaqembu okufunda ngomshini ukuxhasa le mikhiqizo.
IFirefox izoqhubeka nokuba ngumkhiqizo ovelele, kodwa ukuthuthuka kwayo gxila kokuhlangenwe nakho komsebenzisi, ngemali yokwehlisa utshalomali kuzici njengamathuluzi wokuthuthukisa iwebhu, amathuluzi angaphakathi nokuthuthukiswa kwesikhulumi.
Amandla okuphepha ahlobene nobumfihlo azodluliselwa "kuthimba lomkhiqizo nokusebenza" elibhekele ukuthuthukiswa komkhiqizo omusha. Ngokunjalo, izindlela zokuxhumana zenkampani nomphakathi zizobuyekezwa, kuhloswe ngazo ukuheha kakhulu amavolontiya.
Inkinga yeMozilla ilula: ayenzi imali eningi njengangaphambili. Umthombo wayo oyinhloko wokuthola imali ususelwa kusiphequluli sayo somthombo ovulekile seFirefox, esake sathandwa kakhulu kwi-Intanethi. Ngo-2011, iMozilla isayine isivumelwano esingama- $ 300 million ngonyaka neGoogle LLC ukwenza izinjini zayo zokucinga zibe yi-Firefox.
Kodwa ukuncipha kokuthandwa kwesiphequluli kusho ukuthi izinkampani ezinjengeGoogle azisazimisele ukwehla wemali engaka. Ku-2017, i-11% yabo bonke abasebenzisi be-Intanethi babesebenzisa iFirefox, kepha lelo nani lehle laya ngaphansi kuka-4%, ngokusho kwezibalo ezivela kuhlelo lwe-Digital Analytics Program lukahulumeni wase-US.
Ekugcineni, uma ufuna ukwazi kabanzi ngezindaba, ungabheka imininingwane yesimemezelo ekushicilelweni kwasekuqaleni. Isixhumanisi yilokhu.
