Massive layoffs in California now grow according to the latest WARN data as another business advises of upcoming job cuts.
Informatica, an enterprise cloud data management leader, last week announced its Total Revenues increased 10% year-over-year to $408.6 million.
However, despite this seemingly positive news, the company also announced it was permanently laying off a whopping 545 employees.
The company filed a WARN notice with the California Employment Development Department, advising them of the job cuts, which will take place by December 31.
“Informatica is taking a final step of our transformation to an AI-powered cloud company.
The company took a difficult action on Nov. 1 and implemented a global restructuring of their global workforce to align business efficiencies and focus on long-term success,” said a spokesperson for the company.
So far, California remains the #1 state with the most layoffs in the country.
The state has had 65,975 layoffs this year across 1,161 businesses.
In second place is New York followed by Colorado, Illinois, Texas, Washington, New Jersey, Florida, Michigan, and Georgia.

Massive California banks are now closing according to new reports, including several Wells Fargo branches and one BMO branch.
This week, 5 big bank branches are closing in California, a trend that is only expected to grow in the years to come.
Why are we seeing traditional branches across America collapse?
The rise of online banking has greatly impacted traditional banks, causing the entire industry to pivot and adapt to the ever growing digital world.
The following bank branches are expected to shutter in California soon:
- Wells Fargo. 303 2nd St, San Francisco
- Wells Fargo. Hores Parkway, Redwood City
- Wells Fargo. 305 W. Sepulveda Blvd, Torrance
- Wells Fargo. 7950 West Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles

“All over California, 277 bank branches have closed so far this year, second only this century to 2020, when 325 branches closed.
Branch openings are a much rarer occurrence: Only eight have occurred statewide this year,” reports Governing.
A recent report states that Wells Fargo plans to lay off approximately 525 of its employees based in Columbia, South Carolina, and close the bank’s corporate office there by June 30, 2024.
“Wells Fargo leaders are working to provide up-to-date facilities with modern workspaces and technology to create a more collaborative work environment that is a better employee experience,” Wells Fargo wrote in a notice.
“At the same time, we need to concentrate Wells Fargo real estate investments in fewer locations or reduce space in existing real estate,” the bank said.
Bank of Montreal (BMO) is cutting 228 jobs in California’s Bay Area next month, as the Canadian lender continues to shed positions following its February acquisition of San Francisco-based Bank of the West.
