Pack Health Layoffs

Pack Health, a Birmingham-based digital health coaching company owned by Quest Diagnostics, is shutting down by the end of 2025 and cutting 98 jobs. The company cited slower-than-expected market adoption and the loss of a major customer as reasons for the closure.

Employees were notified this week, with some departing immediately. Quest said it will provide support to affected staff.

Pack Health was once considered one of Birmingham’s startup success stories, announcing a $5 million headquarters expansion in 2023 that promised 200 new jobs and significant economic impact. Its closure contributes to a rising trend of layoffs in Alabama, with more than 3,200 workers affected by mass layoffs and closures in the state so far this year.
