Grubhub Announces 500 Job Cuts Following Acquisition by Wonder

The layoffs, affecting 20% of Grubhub's workforce, come as the company integrates with Wonder and reorganizes for future growth.

Grubhub is laying off approximately 500 employees, representing more than 20% of its workforce, as part of a restructuring under new ownership by Wonder.
The layoffs impact all corporate teams but do not include Grubhub's delivery partners, with affected employees offered severance and outplacement services.
Wonder, a food delivery startup founded by former Walmart executive Marc Lore, acquired Grubhub in January 2025 for $650 million, a significant loss from the $7.3 billion paid by its previous owner, Just Eat Takeaway, in 2021.
Grubhub’s CEO, Howard Migdal, stated the reorganization aims to streamline operations, eliminate redundancies, and prioritize growth investments after achieving positive free cash flow in 2024.
The company plans to hold meetings and a town hall in March to outline its strategy for 2025, while maintaining the Grubhub brand as part of Wonder’s broader food delivery and prepared meals platform.
