Oracle Plans Potential Global Layoffs Affecting Thousands Including India in September
Oracle is reportedly planning another round of layoffs, potentially affecting 7,000 to 10,000 employees globally, including up to 3,000 in India. These cuts aim to reduce costs amid ongoing investments in cloud computing and artificial intelligence. While September 1 was initially expected for announcements, layoffs did not occur then, shifting attention to September 15. Oracle has not confirmed details, and uncertainty remains about the timing and scope of the job reductions, which would follow prior cuts of around 21,000 employees over the past year.
