Just announced 1 hour ago that Spotify is laying off 17% of the workforce from across the company—no additional details about where the layoffs are focused by business or function. Employees should find out if they’re affected in the next hours by HR. Hope you all enjoyed your Wrapped this year because who knows how many people that made it happen won’t be working here anymore tomorrow #tech #layoffs
Was an email sent out to employees? This is fresh, not even in the news yet
17% is a lot.. jfc
This is a lot. 1 in 5
Spotify removed all the free features and made them premium, even basic features like jumping to a particular timestamp in the song. Then everyone rated the app terribly in Play Store. I think it got avg rating of 2.6 stars from tens of thousands of users. So, I think this layoff was coming ?
…that’s not how that works lol
This is all decidedly false. Did you even take 30 seconds to check your claims about the play store?
Damn that is so cold - and right before the holidays too. Anyone impacted, feel free to DM for a TikTok / Bytedance referral
Spotify not hiring anymore? Checked their website , there are no positions at all
Can’t wait to see what kind of bonus the ceo and head of hr get as a reward for their hard work
He is the founder too, so may be he already incentivized by reducing the cost.
Right before the holidays? 😢 Jfc these corporations are ruthless
DM for Intuit, we are hiring.
