Payment processing firm Stripe is cutting over 1,000 jobs, or 14% of its staff, according to a memo from company CEO Patrick Collison.
Collison blamed macroeconomic factors such as inflation, rising energy prices and higher interest rates for the layoffs, and said “to adapt ourselves appropriately for the world we’re headed into, we need to reduce our costs.”
Bloomberg was the first to report on the job cuts.
UPDATE (Nov. 3, 13:50 UTC): Updates story with confirmation from Stripe.
