By 2025, Alibaba intends to implement a significant workforce reduction, laying off roughly 34% of its staff. This move will bring the total employee count down from 194,320 in the same period last year to 128,197, marking a decrease of 66,123 positions. The primary drivers behind these layoffs are the company's strategic divestiture of certain offline retail ventures and a substantial ramp-up in its investments within the artificial intelligence sector, reflecting a broader industry trend towards digital transformation and technological innovation.
