In a statement released Thursday morning, /*Pelco*/ CEO Dean Meyer said the cuts are being made to make the company more efficient and move to a more globalized operations strategy.
Meyer also said in the statement, "While the cuts necessitate a reduction in our U.S. operations workforce, we are continuing to add Clovis-based jobs in engineering, sales and marketing. Of course, we will do our utmost to support those who have been affected and help them find new opportunities."
Pelco employs roughly 2,000 people at its Clovis facilities.
