giftdetect· the right gift in minutesCanva is restructuring its business in a move that will affect 22% of its workforce, after the design platform's growth slowed.
At the same time, the company is changing its working arrangements. From January, most hybrid Canva employees will be expected in the office two to three days a week.
What we know
The two announcements point to a company resetting both its size and its way of working as expansion cools. The available details do not specify which teams or regions are affected, how many roles are involved, or what timeline applies to the restructuring.
The new office expectation applies to most staff on hybrid arrangements, and takes effect at the start of the new year.
Why it matters
Canva is one of the best-known names in the startup world, so a restructuring on this scale signals how far the slowdown in growth is shaping decisions even at established, fast-scaling companies. For employees, the combination of workforce changes and a firmer office routine marks a notable shift in how the company operates.
Further details on the scope of the restructuring have not yet been provided.
