    Tech Industry Struggles as Layoffs Surge Amid Economic Turmoil

    By Business Leaders ReviewJune 6, 2023

    Key Pointers:

    • Salesforce and Vimeo announce significant job cuts in response to sluggish sales.
    • Layoffs in the tech industry exceeded 150,000 in 2022, surpassing pandemic levels.
    • Salesforce to lay off around 7,000 employees (10% of the workforce) and shutter select offices.
    • Vimeo implements a second round of layoffs, affecting 11% of staff, to navigate uncertain economic conditions.

    The tech sector is facing mounting layoffs amidst a persistent economic downturn. Major companies like Salesforce and Vimeo have announced significant job cuts due to sluggish sales, adding to the already alarming number of layoffs in the industry. In 2022, layoffs in the tech industry exceeded 150,000, surpassing levels seen during the pandemic.

    Salesforce plans to lay off around 7,000 employees, which accounts for 10% of its workforce. The company also intends to close select offices as part of its cost-cutting strategy. Salesforce’s Co-CEO, Marc Benioff, acknowledges the challenges faced by the organization, with customers adopting a more cautious approach to purchasing decisions. Benioff takes personal accountability for excessive recruitment during the pandemic, which led to the need for downsizing measures.

    Vimeo, a video platform, is also implementing another round of layoffs, affecting 11% of its staff. The company emphasizes the need for focus and discipline in navigating uncertain economic conditions. Vimeo’s CEO, Anjali Sud, acknowledges the difficulty of the decision but sees it as necessary for the company to become more prosperous.

    The surge in layoffs within the tech sector raises concerns about its stability and ability to drive economic growth. As companies make difficult decisions to weather the storm, the industry’s ability to adapt to the evolving landscape remains uncertain. The tech sector’s recovery in the coming months is a significant question mark.
