7% of Visa Employees Lost Their Jobs to This Trend

Visa just cut 7% of its staff. 2,600 jobs gone even as profits hit record highs. The reason is efficiency and AI. Visa’s CEO says AI is redefining how work gets done. But this isn’t just a Visa move. MasterCard and Block also cut thousands this year for the same reason. AI is now the #1 reason for layoffs, driving 40% of all job cuts last month. Google reports 75% of new code is written by AI, not people. By 2027, half the companies firing for AI will rehire—but not for your old job.
