Layoffs at West Corporation

(WKOW/WBAY) -- West Corporation is laying off about 150 workers in Middleton and the Green Bay area.

112 employees in Middleton will be let go. 36 employees will lose their jobs in Ashwaubenon. The layoffs are effective August 31.

The job losses are in the West Revenue Generation Services division. Nearly all of the positions being eliminated are sales associates, but a vice president of client engagement and two directors of revenue generating business are also among those being laid off.

The Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development says it will work with the Bay Area and South Central workforce development boards to help the affected workers look for other jobs.

West Corporation is an international communication technology company based in Nebraska. It has offices in Appleton, Ashwaubenon, Middleton and Wausau, according to its website.

The company says the cuts are happening because it lost a major client.
