Tractive
+++ The familiar pattern! At the Austrian PetTech scaleup Tractive It comes after the takeover by the Italian software group Bending Spoons to the expected job cuts. As ORF Upper Austria reports, the affected employees have already been offered a severance package. According to Trending Topics, up to half of the workforce could be affected by the cuts. The development is hardly surprising: Bending Spoons is known for profoundly restructuring acquired companies. In Germany, the takeover of Komoot for similar headlines. The news overshadows one of the largest startup exits in Austrian history ($900 million) and shows once again that billion-dollar takeovers do not automatically mean a happy ending for the workforce.
