“Why ‘Clubhouse’ is Laying Off More Than 50% of Its Workforce: The Plan for ‘Clubhouse 2.0′”

Very little is heard about the audio communication app “Clubhouse”, which was very popular a couple of years ago. The app reached its zenith of popularity during the pandemic, when it was a good solution to remotely contact people and discuss various topics in the everyday life full of restrictions. Now that the world has returned to the ‘old regime’, the popularity of the Clubhouse has fallen significantly. Well, the management of the company has also announced that they plan to lay off more than 50% of the entire workforce, or around 25 employees.

“Clubhouse” founders Paul Davison and Rohan Seth, informing about this news, emphasized that the operation of the company needs to be reset in some way. They explain that the world has more or less returned to its pre-pandemic state, and as a result, Clubhouse activity has died down because people don’t really have time to be active on the app anymore. Davison and Seth emphasized that in order for a product to find its place in the market, it must change and adapt to the changing world of technology.

The founders of the company also stated that with the current size of the team, the operation of “Clubhouse” is no longer possible. According to them, a smaller, more product-oriented team will be able to make the necessary changes in the operation of “Clubhouse”, which is why the decision was made to lay off more than 50% of the workforce. Davison and Seth have also revealed that they have a clear vision for ‘Clubhouse 2.0’. It remains to be hoped that it will be realized.
