Description
Oracle, a multinational cloud-computing firm, has announced a reduction of approximately 150 roles in its Irish operations, as part of an internal restructuring plan. The cuts come amid a broader shift toward artificial intelligence, as Oracle ramps up Artificial Intelligence (AI) spending to strengthen its cloud services against competitors such as Alphabet and Amazon. While the exact sites affected are not specified beyond the country level, the company’s collective redundancy notification signals a company-wide effort to streamline operations in Ireland. Oracle has sites in Dublin and Galway.
