On July 19, 2026, Reuters reported that Samsung Electronics America had slashed 739 positions in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, representing almost two-thirds of the local workforce. This workforce reduction is tied to Samsung's decision to relocate its U.S. headquarters to Texas. However, most of the affected employees have been presented with the option to transfer. Samsung clarified that these adjustments solely impact its consumer electronics sector and leave its semiconductor division untouched. While the semiconductor business has witnessed a surge in profits amidst the AI craze, the mobile phone, TV, and home appliance segments are grappling with pressure due to escalating chip costs.
