Salesforce has recently laid off a significant number of employees, marking its third round of job cuts in nine months. This latest wave of layoffs affects teams tied to key products, including the Agentforce AI product and Mulesoft IT integration tool. The company is realigning its workforce in response to market pressures and ongoing concerns about AI. Despite reporting $1.2 billion in AI revenue last month, Salesforce is implementing these reductions alongside a $50 billion share buyback strategy. The decision comes as the company faces a stock decline of 30% and overall economic uncertainty, leading to a re-evaluation of its operations and workforce across various divisions, including marketing and product. Employees impacted by the layoffs have been offered severance packages that surpass those from competitors like Oracle and Amazon.
