Layoff questions, answered with the numbers

How many layoffs have there been in Q3 2025?

The Work Insiders tracker lists 76 layoff announcements from 73 companies in Q3 2025, read from news headlines. Where a number of US jobs was given, they add up to 28,922 jobs cut. Shutdowns, buyouts, announcements that give only a share of staff or no number, cuts spread over several years, cuts outside the US and unchecked reader reports are listed but not in that total.

What was the largest layoff in Q3 2025?

Accenture announced 11,000 job cuts on September 28, 2025, the largest single announcement on the tracker in Q3 2025.

How many layoffs are because of AI?

12% of the layoff headlines in Q3 2025 (9 of 76) name AI or automation as a reason. This is read from the headline only, so a cut whose headline does not give a reason is not in that share.

Report a layoff

Know about a layoff we missed?

Tell us the company and what happened. A report with a link to a public source that names the company goes on the tracker straight away; anything else is checked first. Reader reports without a checked source are listed but not counted in the totals.

How this list is built

Where the numbers come from

Each entry is a news headline in which a company announces job cuts, a shutdown or buyouts, read through the day from Google News, plus reader reports. The list goes back to June 2025; we are adding past headlines back to January 2025. The number shown is the one in the headline, and the headline links to the publisher. We do not estimate, and we leave out government, school and rumor stories.

Totals count only announcements that state a number of US jobs. Cuts given only as a share of staff, cuts with no number, worldwide numbers, shutdowns, buyouts, plans spread over several years and unchecked reader reports are listed but marked "Not in total". Stories from outlets outside the United States are left out.

One entry per company per three weeks; when more headlines report the same cut, the entry shows how many. Companies sometimes revise their numbers, so read the source before you act on one. Spotted a mistake? Tell us.
