Salesforce carried out a new salesforce layoff this week, cutting jobs across teams tied to Agentforce AI, MuleSoft and Marketing Cloud. A California WARN notice listed 86 job cuts, and affected employees are set to remain on the payroll until Aug. 7.
The new round of reductions lands as workers and investors are watching whether the company can keep pushing its AI plans while trimming costs elsewhere. Salesforce said last month that Agentforce annualized revenue had passed $1 billion, even as the company’s stock has fallen more than 30% this year.
People familiar with the matter said the cuts were not limited to California. Roles in Washington state and outside the U.S. were also affected, extending the reduction beyond the jobs named in the state filing. Salesforce had already eliminated fewer than 1,000 roles in January, and by the end of that month the company had more than 80,000 employees, according to an SEC filing.
The California notice provides the clearest public count so far, but it does not capture the full size of the latest reduction. That leaves the broader question open: how many employees Salesforce cut across all of the places touched by this round, and how much further the company is willing to trim while it keeps building around Agentforce.
