The affected workers include software developers, program managers, infrastructure engineers, and data-center support staff. The layoffs represent a 13% reduction in workforce, from 162,000 to 141,000 employees, despite Oracle's cloud infrastructure business seeing a 121% increase in revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2027.
