Canva 宣布进行调整并裁员，影响其 22% 的员工。

Some Canva workers may have different roles, be asked to relocate, or be laid off.

部分 Canva 员工可能会面临岗位变动、被要求搬迁或被裁员。

Canva is making significant changes affecting 1,271 people, which is 22 percent of its staff, co-founder and CEO Melanie Perkins announced today. “For some people, this will mean changes to their roles or being asked to relocate to centralised hubs,” says Perkins. “Sadly, it will also mean saying goodbye to teammates and friends who have helped build Canva into what it is today.”

Canva 联合创始人兼首席执行官梅兰妮·珀金斯（Melanie Perkins）今日宣布，公司正在进行重大调整，涉及 1,271 人，占员工总数的 22%。珀金斯表示：“对一些人来说，这意味着岗位变动或被要求搬迁至中心枢纽办公。遗憾的是，这也意味着我们要与那些帮助 Canva 发展至今的同事和朋友们告别。”

In her note to staff, Perkins says that: After exploring a wide range of alternatives, I’ve come to the difficult conclusion that small changes won’t be enough. To set ourselves up for the next decade, we need to refound Canva, getting back to our roots of small, empowered teams with the freedom to make decisions, take ownership and focus on what matters most for our community.

珀金斯在给员工的信中写道：“在探索了多种替代方案后，我得出了一个艰难的结论：小修小补已不足以应对。为了迎接下一个十年，我们需要重塑 Canva，回归我们最初的模式：由拥有决策权、承担责任并专注于社区核心需求的小型赋能团队组成。”

Canva’s changes include bringing its Product, Growth, and Platform teams together into one product organization, “simplifying layers” and “consolidating overlapping responsibilities,” and making Sydney the “primary home for more of our product teams, as well as roles in other Specialties where shared context and close collaboration are especially important.” Starting in January, Canva will also “expect” most hybrid employees to spend 2 to 3 days in an office each week “depending on what makes sense in your area.”

Canva 的调整包括将产品、增长和平台团队合并为一个产品组织，旨在“简化层级”和“整合重叠职责”，并将悉尼作为“更多产品团队的主要基地，以及其他需要共享背景和紧密协作的专业职能部门的所在地”。从一月开始，Canva 还将“期望”大多数混合办公的员工每周在办公室工作 2 到 3 天，“具体取决于各地区的实际情况”。

Employees leaving Canva will get benefits including at least six months of salary, twelve months of healthcare coverage, and career support resources.

离职员工将获得包括至少六个月工资、十二个月医疗保险以及职业支持资源在内的补偿福利。
