Part 4/5:
Adding to the growing list of layoffs, Workday, a platform specializing in human resources and employee management, is set to eliminate more than 1,700 jobs. This figure represents roughly 8.5% of its total workforce. An open letter from Workday's CEO outlined the reasons for these cuts, which align closely with the company's trajectory toward integrating AI into its operations. For those affected, the company has pledged a severance package that includes a minimum of 12 weeks of pay, with additional compensation based on tenure.
