We’ve applied mitigations and are now seeing improved performance across the HiBob platform. The issue was caused by an internal background process that became overloaded due to a spike in activity from one or more tenants. This increase triggered a higher frequency of backend operations, which overwhelmed shared system components and led to performance degradation. We’re continuing to monitor closely to ensure full stability. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
