Huge Technology Layoffs 2022 - 2023: Examining Job Security in the Technology Industry

Gbemisola Adewuya, Oladapo Asaolu

Abstract: Companies in the technology industry have been impacted differently by the COVID-19 pandemic, with some experiencing rapid growth and increased demand, while others have struggled to adapt and maintain revenue. Economic downturns and market fluctuations can contribute to layoffs and job insecurity. Rapid technological advancement and automation can make certain job roles redundant. Mergers, acquisitions, and company restructuring can also lead to job losses. Therefore, many companies have implemented cost - cutting measures, including layoffs and furloughs, to mitigate the financial impact of the pandemic. Remote work has become more common in the industry, with some companies announcing permanent work - from - home policies. While the rise of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics is creating new job opportunities in areas such as data science and AI engineering.
