Oracle Romania
Oracle's Romanian subsidiary announced layoffs affecting approximately 400 employees in November 2025 as part of the tech giant's global workforce reduction initiative. On June 25, 2026, Oracle initiated a second round of collective layoffs affecting 526 employees across Oracle România SRL, Oracle Global Services România SRL, Oracle Sovereign Cloud România SRL, and Oracle Sovereign Cloud Tech România SRL. The restructuring is driven by global reorganization focused on AI integration and cost optimization. Affected employees receive legal notice period + 2 months garden leave at full salary, plus 3–12 compensatory salaries based on seniority. In August 2026, Oracle announced a further global round of layoffs targeting double-digit percentage reductions in certain teams, with a deadline of September 1, 2026; the Romania-specific headcount for this round has not been officially confirmed.
eMAG (Dante International)
eMAG, Romania's largest online retailer, announced an internal reorganization in early April 2026 resulting in approximately 3% workforce reduction. With 3,191 employees in 2024, this affects roughly 100 employees directly, though group-level estimates suggest over 300 affected, particularly in the IT research department. The company cited macroeconomic pressures, decreased consumption, competition from non-EU platforms, and failure to meet financial targets (191 million RON loss in 2024 despite 9 billion RON turnover). Affected employees receive 4 compensatory salaries plus 50% of salary per year of service. Contracts expected to terminate around April 15, 2026. The reorganization coincided with the launch of iZi, an AI-powered shopping agent.
