It's interesting to see how this company somehow had it coming since it launched their card in the UK market last year, with the regulator breathing down their neck. It only got worse in the US with the current financial situation.

I would like to assume their change of heart about the work policy came way too late and their investment on real estate, like for many other companies that didn't acknowledge the changing times, also played a role in this.

The financial strategy is the direct fault of a few in key positions in the org, who won't be affected by this cut at all, rather played a bit of Russian roulette on their employees.

Their CEO is just as detached from reality as many others and the recession is just a scapegoat in this instance.

For what it matters, I wish all the best to every single one that was caught into this mess.

All these places cutting staff and tightening their belts is going to be a self fulfilling prophecy.

Klarna, Uber, WeWork and so many other non businesses made their founders so rich in this massive cycle. It's a great con to be honest, right in the open, just take the money and leave.
