Oracle has begun laying off employees worldwide, with workers receiving termination notices early Tuesday as part of what the company described “as part of a broader organizational change,” according to multiple reports.

The layoffs were first reported earlier this month by Bloomberg, with Business Insider reporting that employees started receiving termination notices early Tuesday and appear to span multiple countries. The full scope of the reductions could not be immediately confirmed, and an Oracle spokesperson declined to comment when reached.

According to copies of the email reviewed by Business Insider, affected employees were told that their roles had been eliminated and that the day of the email would be their final working day.

As of Thursday, the latest weekly report under the Massachusetts’ Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act for the week ending March 27 did not list any Oracle layoffs. The company maintains field offices in Burlington, Massachusetts and Nashua, New Hampshire.

Oracle has not publicly explained the reason for the cuts. Analysts at TD Cowen have estimated the layoffs could total between 20,000 and 30,000 workers — or roughly 18% of its global workforce of about 162,000 employees — though the company has not confirmed those figures.

The layoffs come during a period of restructuring for Oracle, which disclosed a $2.1 billion plan in a September 2025 SEC filing. The company has not publicly linked that effort to the current job cuts.

The reductions also follow a broader wave of tech industry layoffs. Amazon cut roughly 16,000 jobs in January, while Meta has trimmed hundreds of roles in recent weeks as it shifts more resources toward artificial intelligence.
