About

Zwift, a leading virtual cycling and running platform, announced significant layoffs on May 12, 2022, affecting approximately 150 employees. This workforce reduction, impacting various divisions, was part of a broader restructuring to "right-size the business." The company simultaneously canceled its plans to launch a smart bike and trainer hardware, citing the challenging macroeconomic environment and the normalization of indoor cycling sales. This strategic shift away from hardware development, which Zwift described as a "pause," led to the downsizing, particularly within the hardware division. The move aligns with similar cost-cutting measures recently taken by competitors like Wahoo and Peloton in the connected fitness industry.
