for those who work in the technology industry, 2024 is going to be very complicated because there will be severe layoffs… and the worst is that these layoffs will not be linked to the economy because profits are well up and the economy is strong. But rather following complaints from investors who believe that these companies are overstaffed "we are walking on our heads!! (Ebay, Discord, Microsoft, Twitch, Google…) instead of hiring thousands of people each quarter, They are spending billions to develop AI technology that they say could one day be worth billions. Yes, fewer jobs, more profits 
[quote="Michael, post:11, topic:624365, full:true, username:Michael_Sparshatt"What a shame Flint has gone - would like to think that the work he was driving won’t get completely canned, but the signs aren’t great.

Is it negative that he is canned? I mean multiple players driving the ZRS should be canned. The time it took them to get the project moving vs Zwift Racing app is a joke. Zwift Racing app is done by 1 person.
Zwift racing score is done by a team.
Zwift racing score can just copy the former. They spent over 1 year doing nothing!
Employees in that division should be fired for being functionally useless. The whole ZRS debacle reminds me of hiring employees that does nothing and just milk the company resource.
Hell the same can be said for CE. When you produce a core product but fail to revisit your goals and improve on it, you have failed the product. The fact that CE has seen so little improvement, should send the team behind it packing.
They should be continously improving the product but they fail to do so.
I don’t agree. Everything you describe is related to leadership decisions. They are making choices you don’t like and there’s nothing else to it.
They made their decision, they wanted xyz. It takes the workers to make and implement it. There is no reason it takes them what 2 years to create and implement it? We should be on version 5 by now.
And what is worst, they just needed to copy Zwift Racing App for 90% of the work.
If you suck so bad at your job that you can’t even copy, you should get laid off.
Your comment does not sound like it’s informed by the experience of working in or managing a tech company that has gone through several significant rounds of layoffs. You assume that this project was a high priority for the company at all, which I doubt very much (why would it be?). The effect of layoffs is you lose good employees as well as the bad, and after several rounds your best employees polish their resume and start looking around. Employee morale and performance on all projects gets worse. You don’t do more with less, you do less with less. Hopefully you do it for important reasons but it’s more about improving the balance sheet than cutting poor performers. My expectations are lower now.
If I may draw a parallel from comments people make about my industry:
“This railway is too expensive and unreliable. They should sack all the drivers!”
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE! 
the sky is blue brother, not green. though for all i know some smart ass trivia website somewhere might disagree with my statement on technical grounds
Found the people who should have lost their jobs instead of the good people who were trying to make Zwift better.
3 years ago, finding good talent was hard. Right now many game related employees are losing their jobs. Good talents are a dime a dozen.
Firing employees means you can hire back better/cheaper employees in the current environment.
And I highly doubt the ones that are lost are anywhere near top tier given the development of Zwift.
