The streaming giant is hardly alone as its big tech counterparts—including Google, Amazon and Meta—have all announced layoffs amid a tough economic backdrop, one plagued by stickier than expected inflation and rapidly rising interest rates.

“While we have made great progress in improving speed in the last few years, we haven’t focused as much on improving efficiency,” Spotify CEO Daniel Ek penned on the company’s official blog. “We still spend far too much time syncing on slightly different strategies, which slows us down.
