"Company grew too quickly during the pandemic boom"
Jason Citron
Discord has laid off 170 employees, which accounts for 17% of its workforce, citing that the company expanded too rapidly during the pandemic. However, this explanation may seem at odds with their significant investment of $110 million in AI, suggesting a potential shift in focus rather than just a reaction to overexpansion.
