TELUS Digital Romania

TELUS Digital Romania, a subsidiary of Canadian telecom group TELUS, announced a second wave of collective layoffs in May 2026, affecting approximately 300 employees with departures scheduled between July and October 2026. This follows a previous round of 300 layoffs in April 2026 (also due to project closure at client request), bringing the total to ~600 affected employees within two months. The company cited a highly dynamic industry with continuously evolving requirements. The communication to employees was criticized by HR consultants as hypocritical. The company reported a 54% decline in net profit for the most recent fiscal period. UPDATE (June 2026): The second wave of 300 collective layoffs (announced May 2026) was confirmed, with departures scheduled between July and October 2026. These are attributed to the closure of a major client project. The internal communication to affected employees was criticized publicly as 'hypocritical' for combining expressions of gratitude with performance expectations until departure. Total affected: ~600 employees.
