LinkedIn will cut more than 500 Bay Area jobs this summer as the Microsoft owned company trims staff across engineering, product, marketing and business teams.
In a filing with California’s Employment Development Department, LinkedIn said 606 positions will be eliminated statewide in July, including 352 roles in Mountain View, 108 in San Francisco and 59 in Sunnyvale, plus dozens of remote workers. At least 519 of those jobs are based in the Bay Area, with engineers taking the biggest hit.
CEO Daniel Shapero told employees the company is scaling back investments and reorganizing to focus on areas with the highest impact, while a spokesperson framed the layoffs as “organizational changes” meant to set LinkedIn up for future success. The cuts arrive less than a year after the platform’s previous California layoffs and add to a broader wave of tech job losses reshaping the Bay Area workforce.
