WiseTech Global Plans 2,000 Job Cuts Amid AI Integration in Software Operations

Australian logistics software firm WiseTech Global announced plans to cut about 2,000 jobs, roughly 29% of its 7,000-strong workforce, over the next two years due to AI integration across software development and internal operations. CEO Zubin Appoo described this as a major shift, stating the era of manual coding is over. The reductions will notably affect product development and customer service teams, including its U.S. cloud computing division E2open. This move reflects broader global trends of AI-driven workforce changes.
