The truth is that it is unheard of: Isn’t it true that if you fire the people who have built your company, then that company doesn’t work as well? Just like Elon Musk<\/a> was amazed one day at the Twitter bot festival (with “Tits in bio” in the spotlight), now it’s Daniel Ek, CEO of Spotify, who has shown his astonishment to see that his app doesn’t work the same with 1500 fewer people.<\/strong> Unprecedented, Daniel.<\/p>\n\n

It can’t be<\/h2>\n\n\n

What is good for the company? That, even by laying off so many people, Spotify has had record profits of 168 million euros in the first quarter of the year, so investors (those people who don’t care about art as long as their pockets are full) will be happy. What is bad? The number of users is decreasing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

After eliminating 17% of jobs, Daniel Ek has stated that “it disrupted our day-to-day operations more than we anticipated”<\/em>. I wonder why. In their pursuit of constant profits, Spotify<\/a> has also decided to raise prices once again<\/strong>, surprisingly with very few users jumping ship.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n

Another one of the novelties that, frankly, have significantly worsened the user experience, is to leave aside the hand-made lists by music fans to focus on a DJ that creates them through artificial intelligence<\/a>. If that doesn’t attract people, what will. The Spotify empire is starting to crack, and Daniel Ek, its CEO, seems to not know the reason.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Who knows, maybe if they had 1500 more people on their team, investors would be a little sadder, but users wouldn’t go to greener pastures.<\/strong> Just a crazy idea.<\/p>\n\n
