A WARN notice is the advance warning an employer must file with a state labor department before a mass layoff, generally 60 days ahead. 3,300 jobs announced today, corroborated Counted only where two independent newsrooms printed the same figure.

Not counted, because their published data is more than three weeks behind: Texas (last filing 2026-06-23). A state that has stopped publishing has not stopped laying people off, so leaving it out beats counting it as a zero. Unreachable when this page was built: Oregon.

How many jobs has Uber cut? Uber is cutting 3,300 jobs in a company-wide restructuring. What were the largest WARN filings in the past 30 days? Borton & Sons filed for 928 jobs in Washington, 24Hr Homecare filed for 738 jobs in Los Angeles County, and Jabil filed for 382 jobs in Santa Clara County. ## Layoffs are the ones you can see coming. Resignations are not. A WARN notice gives a state 60 days of warning. Nobody files one before they resign. TeamPredict reads the public LinkedIn signals your own team is already giving off and flags who looks likely to leave, so you get the same lead time on the departures that actually hurt.
