techcrunch.com/2024/04/05/apple-lays-off-over-600-employees-in-california-after-abandoning-electric-car-plans/
Quick Glance: Apple's Workforce Reduction and Project Termination in California
- Following the cancellation of the electric car project, Apple is letting go of 614 employees in California. The affected employees were informed on March 28, with the changes taking effect on May 27. They were based at eight locations in Santa Clara.
- Most affected employees were primarily working at buildings related to the cancelled car project, with others involved in next-generation screen development.
- Apple wrapped up both projects in February. The company initiated its car project, internally known as 'Project Titan,' in 2014 and announced its cancellation on February 27. Some remaining employees transitioned to Apple's generative AI projects.
- Reports indicate that Apple ceased its efforts on designing and developing next-generation displays around the same time. Initially intended for the Apple Watch, these displays were planned for potential integration into other company devices. These layoffs signify Apple's initial significant job cuts post-pandemic.
