17258: Layoffs Lollapalooza.

The Associated Press published content with the following headline: Layoffs are piling up, raising worker anxiety. Here are some companies that have cut jobs recently

 

The report was illustrated with the image above, depicting the downsizing corporations.

 

Such layoffs are bound to impact White advertising agencies already being adversely affected by the merger maneuvers of White holding companies.

 

It also means displaced advertising drones will be unable to secure backup jobs with places like Amazon and Target—and they’ll be unable to afford shopping there too.

 

Worth noting—The list includes Microsoft and states:

 

In May, Microsoft began laying off about 6,000 workers across its workforce. And just months later, the tech giant said it would be cutting 9,000 positions—marking its biggest round of layoffs seen in more than two years. The company has cited “organizational changes,” but the labor reductions also arrive as the company spends heavily on AI.

 

WPP CEO Cindy Rose hails from Microsoft, so she clearly has RIF experience that can be applied to the beleaguered White holding company.
