Monday.com本周宣布实施大规模裁员计划,涉及约600名员工,占其总员工数的20%,重组费用预计在4500万至5500万美元之间[1]。该公司将此举定位为其AI驱动增长战略的组成部分[1]。
从2026年以来,美国科技行业已出现超过20家公司因AI转型而宣布裁员,累计减少近14万个工作岗位[1]。其中Amazon、Oracle、Meta和Microsoft四家企业占据了近5万个岗位的流失[1]。Meta的做法颇具代表性,该公司一边将7000名员工调往AI相关岗位,一边同时裁减8000人[1]。
Monday.com联合创始人Eran Zinman辩称这次裁员"不是为了降低成本或用AI替代员工"[1]。不过市场数据显示,宣布AI相关裁员的公司在宣布后的30个交易日内,股价表现相比纳斯达克指数下跌近10%[1]。与此同时,部分企业如IBM则采取了不同策略,计划将AI和混合云职位的入职级别招聘增加三倍[1]。
Monday.com announced this week that it would eliminate approximately 20% of its workforce, cutting more than 600 employees as part of its AI-driven growth strategy [1]. The company expects restructuring costs between $45 million and $55 million [1].
The work management platform is far from alone in attributing workforce reductions to artificial intelligence. Since 2026, more than 20 major technology companies have announced AI-related layoffs totaling nearly 140,000 positions across the United States [1]. Amazon, Oracle, Meta, and Microsoft account for roughly half of these cuts, with approximately 50,000 positions eliminated among the four firms [1].
Despite the stated focus on AI transformation, Monday.com co-founder Eran Zinman stressed that the restructuring was "not about reducing costs or replacing employees with AI" [1]. The company's approach contrasts with some industry peers; Meta, for instance, reassigned 7,000 employees to AI-related roles while simultaneously laying off 8,000 workers [1]. IBM has taken a different approach, planning to triple entry-level hiring for positions in AI and hybrid cloud technology [1].
The market response to AI-focused layoff announcements has been notably negative. Companies announcing AI-related workforce reductions have underperformed the Nasdaq index by approximately 10% in the 30 trading days following their announcements [1].
