The Weekly Cut · published Sep 21, 2025
AI layoffs this week: Sep 15, 2025 – Sep 21, 2025
The largest event of the week was Fiverr, with 250 roles cut (Fiverr cut ~250 employees, about 30% of its workforce, to rebuild as an 'AI-first company' with a smaller, flatter organization - months after CEO Kaufman told staff to upskill in AI or perish.). Across the week, cuts touched technology.
