Bumble estimates the layoffs, which are slated to take place in the second half of the year, will save $40 million. The Texas-based company said it will reinvest most of that money into &#8220;product and technology development.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In announcing the decision to staff on Wednesday, Bumble CEO Whitney Wolfe Herd, who also co-founded Tinder, said the online dating business as is at an &#8220;inflection point.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The reality is, we need to take decisive action to restructure to build a company that&#8217;s resilient, intentional and ready for the next decade,&#8221; she wrote in an email to Bumble employees.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a statement to CBS News, a Bumble spokesperson said the decision to reduce the company&#8217;s workforce is in line with the company&#8217;s strategic goals.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our focus now is on moving forward in a way that strengthens our core business, continues to serve our members effectively and positions us for future growth,&#8221; the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>Bumble said in its securities filing that it will incur $13 million to $18 million in non-recurring charges for severance and other benefits paid out to impacted employees.
