Indeed, Glassdoor to lay off 1,300 staff amid AI push


Recruit Holdings, the Japanese parent of Indeed and Glassdoor, is laying off about 1,300 employees, or 6% of the staff at the two job sites.

The job cuts would affect functions mostly in the U.S. across the two companies’ R&D, tech, and HR and sustainability divisions, Reuters reported, citing an internal memo. Reuters also reported that the company’s CEO, Hisayuki Idekoba, wrote in the memo: “AI is changing the world, and we must adapt by ensuring our product delivers truly great experiences for job seekers and employers.” Tens of thousands of people stand to lose jobs at Microsoft, TikTok, Match, Intel and Meta, per announcements in just the past couple of months.
