$2B: the purchase price of Credit Suisse, a global firm with $22B in revenues and 50k employees Also, $2B: the current valuation of dozens of (also money-losing) unicorns with <$50-75M in revenues

@GergelyOrosz Wave laid off 15% of their work force earlier this year

Lots of answers and very good to hear lots of examples of fintech companies that raised a lot in 2021, hired aggressively since, but no layoffs. Hopefully, it stays like that! A few: Ramp, Revolut, N26, Wave Money, Mollie, Razorpay, PayFit, Quonto and more in the replies.

Is there any privately traded FinTech unicorn left that raised a substantial amount of $$ in 2021, hired aggressively, and is not doing, or will be doing layoffs in 2022? I am running out of examples I can think of.

Yes, we all need to look critically at inconsistencies of our policy and enforcement. Yes, we need to look at how our service might incentivize distraction and harm. Yes, we need more transparency in our moderation operations. All this can’t erode a free and open global internet.

This moment in time might call for this dynamic, but over the long term it will be destructive to the noble purpose and ideals of the open internet. A company making a business decision to moderate itself is different from a government removing access, yet can feel much the same.

Having to take these actions fragment the public conversation. They divide us. They limit the potential for clarification, redemption, and learning. And sets a precedent I feel is dangerous: the power an individual or corporation has over a part of the global public conversation.
