Match Group manager Chine Mmegwa now oversees 24 employees, up from three before November, reflecting a trend towards "megamanagers" in corporate America. Companies including Meta, Citigroup and Amazon have reduced middle-management ranks to streamline operations. The average number of direct reports per manager rose to 12.1 in 2024 from 10.9 the previous year, according to Gallup. Middle-manager job postings fell 12.3% in 2025. Match Group cut its workforce by 13% in early 2024, removing management layers to increase speed. Whilst decisions now move faster, Mmegwa works 10 additional hours weekly managing a larger, geographically dispersed team. Leadership consultants warn that whilst leaner structures can reduce bottlenecks, managers may become reactive rather than strategic. Workers risk disengagement if managers lack time for mentorship and appreciation.

Match Group reported third-quarter 2025 earnings of 82 cents per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 9.89%, though up 60.8% year over year. Revenues of $914.3 million increased 2.1% year over year but missed estimates by 0.08%. Total payers decreased 4.5% year over year to 14.5 million, whilst revenues per payer rose 6.9% to $20.58. Hinge drove growth with revenues up 27% year over year to $184.7 million. Tinder revenues declined 2.5% to $490.6 million, with payers down 6.9% to 9.3 million. Shares have added 0.6% since the earnings report, outperforming the S&P 500. The company has raised $295 million total across three funding rounds in 14 months.

Match Group has eliminated its Chief Operating Officer role, resulting in Hesam Hosseini's departure after 18 years with the company. Hosseini had been COO since 1 April 2025, following a promotion, and previously served as CEO of Evergreen & Emerging Brands. The move follows earlier leadership changes under CEO Spencer Rascoff, including the departure of President Gary Swidler and layoffs aimed at saving $100 million annually. The decision comes as the dating app industry faces burned-out users and declining popularity amongst Gen Z. Match Group recently reported first-quarter revenue of $878 million, beating estimates, but its full-year forecast of $3.41 billion to $3.54 billion fell short of Wall Street's $3.59 billion expectation. Tinder is planning its first-ever product event this month to showcase new features and future plans.
