Why Oracle Laid Off 30k Employees Despite Strong Revenue Growth

From the creator

US-based IT firm Oracle has laid off thousands of employees globally, even as it continues to post strong revenue growth. The job cuts come as the company spends heavily on artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure and large data centre projects, putting pressure on its cash flow. On Tuesday, the company laid off around 2,500 employees in India, with another round of job cuts expected within a month. Globally, Oracle has eliminated about 30,000 positions.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
