Salesforce reduced its workforce by fewer than 1,000 employees in early February. The layoffs impacted teams across marketing, product, and data departments. This move supports a strategic shift toward AI-driven processes and products, including the Agentforce AI agents.
The company also reshuffled its executive leadership by appointing or promoting six new executives to lead key business units. These leaders will oversee divisions including Slack and Agentforce. The restructuring follows the departure of several high-profile executives since December and signals a deeper integration of AI across the organization.
