Condé Nast is trying to be more transparent as it grapples with what is expected to be several more years of losses at the glitzy publishing house.

On Wednesday, CEO Bob Sauerberg held a town hall meeting where he told employees that the company expected to cut losses in 2018 but would still be operating in the red in 2019 — and that there would be another round of layoffs in the fall, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.

Sauerberg followed up the town hall with an email “Ask Me Anything” Q&A session open to all employees, insiders said.

Surprisingly, there were no more follow-up questions about the next round of layoffs, said an insider.

There were questions about where people will be sitting with the ongoing office renovation plans to consolidate space at the One World Trade Center HQ.

So far, floors 29 and 30 have relocated for several months while the offices are overhauled and the company tries to sublease some of its space as it consolidates.

When one questioner asked for more info on the pending moves, Sauerberg was a little vague, saying only, “We will share information as soon as possible.”
