Tech layoffs: US-based software company Autodesk cuts 250 jobs

Software company Autodesk is laying off 250 employees, less than 2 per cent of its global workforce, amid the global economic meltdown.

The company said these layoffs are part of the plans for its 2024 fiscal year, where the company is “focused on ensuring that our resources remain well-aligned to support our key priorities for the coming year.”

“As part of this process, we made the difficult decision to eliminate these roles, comprising less than 2 per cent of Autodesk’s total global workforce,” a company spokesperson said in a statement.
