The Austin-based dating app expects $40 million in annual cost savings, most of which management plans to plow back into product and technology development. One-time severance and benefits charges are expected to run $13 to $18 million, to be recognized primarily in the third and fourth quarters. CEO and founder Whitney Wolfe Herd told staff the online dating industry is at an "inflection point" and that the company needed "to take decisive action to restructure to build a company that's resilient, intentional and ready for the next decade." Bumble's stock rose 21% on the news, reflecting investor confidence in the cost-cutting plan. https://layoffcheck.com/companies/bumble#2024-02 https://layoffcheck.com/companies/bumble#2024-02-942 Tue, 27 Feb 2024 12:00:00 GMT Six weeks into her tenure as CEO, Lidiane Jones announced on February 27, 2024 that Bumble would cut 350 employees, about 37% of its global workforce. Jones, who took the top job on January 2, framed the decision as building a "leaner, more agile, and more efficient company" by centralizing mission-critical teams, removing management layers, and eliminating duplicated work. The cuts were not performance-based, the company told staff. Bumble said it expected to incur $20 million to $25 million in severance and related charges, with most costs hitting the books in the first half of 2024. The announcement came despite the company posting Q4 2023 revenue of $273.6 million, a 13.2% year-over-year increase, though it recorded a net loss of $32 million that quarter. Offices in Austin, London, and Barcelona were all affected.
