New York, New York-based Calibrate Health, a digital health platform that connects patients with obesity specialists who can prescribe necessary medications and coaches who can help patients make lifestyle changes, has announced a business model pivot and an 18% reduction in its current workforce.
The reduction in force will impact 89 employees and comes after a round of layoffs that impacted 24% of its workforce, or 156 employees, in July 2022.
The company will pivot from individual relationships to enterprise relationships that provide services to their employees to counter increasing competition in the obesity drug space.
According to a company spokesperson, “Calibrate is accelerating our transformation into an Enterprise-first business. We will continue to grow our direct-to-consumer business responsibly.”
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
