Canva Restructures, Cutting 1,271 Jobs Amid Slowed Growth and Organizational Changes
Canva, an Australian design platform, announced a major restructuring affecting 1,271 employees, about 22% of its global workforce, due to slowed growth for the first time in a decade. CEO Melanie Perkins described the move as the company's hardest moment, involving layoffs, role changes, and relocations to central hubs, primarily in Sydney. The company plans to consolidate teams, simplify management, and increase in-person collaboration. A comprehensive severance package includes at least six months' salary, healthcare, career coaching, LinkedIn Premium, and company-issued MacBooks for departing staff.
