Vimeo Layoffs Impact Senior Leaders After Acquisition

Vimeo, a popular video platform, has recently undergone its second round of layoffs after being acquired by a European tech company called Bending Spoons.

This time, a large number of employees, including senior leaders like Dave Brown, who was the VP of Global Brand and Creative, lost their jobs.

Dave Brown shared his feelings on LinkedIn, saying that while it's not the ending anyone would have chosen, he's proud of the work and relationships he built at Vimeo.

This is not the first time Vimeo has laid off employees; they did so in September 2023 as well.

Vimeo was previously owned by a media company called IAC and became a public company in May 2021.

Despite these changes, Vimeo continues to be a significant player in the video hosting industry, offering services beyond just hosting, like webinars and events.
