After record year, ASML is to cut 1,700 jobs, mainly in NL

January 28, 2026

Chip machinery maker ASML is planning to cut its workforce by 1,700 jobs in the coming period, despite having its best-ever year in 2025.

The jobs, the company said in an email to staff ahead of the presentation of its 2025 earnings, will mostly go in the Netherlands and involve “streamlining” its technology and IT divisions to improve the focus on innovation and engineering.

The reorganisation, the company said, is necessary to ensure further growth by bringing back “the fast-moving culture which made us so successful”. ASML has a global workforce of 43,520.

The company booked net profit of €9.6 billion in 2025, on turnover of €31.7 billion. ASML expects further sales growth to between €34 billion and €39 billion this year.

Orders totalled €13 billion in the last three months of the year, almost double the same period in 2024. ASML also announced a new share buyback programme of up to €12 billion, to be executed by 31 December 2028.

ASML is one of Europe’s biggest companies and a major player in the Dutch economy.

Based in Veldhoven near Eindhoven, the company has been at the forefront of efforts to persuade the Dutch government not to discourage highly skilled workers from moving to the Netherlands from abroad and plans to develop a second campus in the region in the coming years.

Beauty Merchandiser position

I noticed that Beauty Merchandisers (previously listed as Cosmetic Stock Associates) used to be full-time, but this week I saw several new Cosmetics Merchandising Associate positions posted as part-time. Are there still full-time beauty merchandisers in stores, or were those roles converted to part-time? Or are these new part-time positions meant to support the full-time staff? Given the responsibility associated with that role compared to the pay. Their compensations should align more with that of a visual captain.

Why are there so many indian jobs?

Former marketer at Elevance Health, now aiming to transition into UnitedHealth Group. Eight-plus years in healthcare marketing, with parallel consulting work for Medicare organizations.

A pattern keeps surfacing: a meaningful share of U.S. healthcare marketing roles are being placed in India. This is difficult to reconcile with the reality of the work. These are American companies serving American patients, operating under U.S. regulations, and handling highly sensitive U.S. health data. Yet core marketing execution and channel leadership are increasingly offshore.

Elevance followed the same trajectory.

This is not framed as xenophobia or talent denial. It is a structural contradiction. Healthcare marketing is inseparable from CMS rules, state-specific nuances, cultural context, compliance risk, and real-time coordination with U.S.-based legal, product, and clinical teams. Offshoring these functions optimizes cost while quietly increasing operational and regulatory fragility.

Job reference illustrating the pattern:
Associate Director – Channel Lead – Digital/Social
Requisition: 2339060
Location: Gurgaon, Haryana, India

This reflects a broader corporate strategy shift, not an isolated posting. Whether it is cost arbitrage, shareholder optics, or internal margin engineering, the outcome is the same: American healthcare expertise displaced from American healthcare execution.


Massachusetts-based software company cuts dozens of jobs in AI push

Fresh off a favorable decision in its $2 billion legal dispute with a competitor, Pegasystems Inc. is cutting jobs.

The Waltham-based software company eliminated "less than 100 global positions" in its consulting organization last week as clients adopt Pega's new AI products, according to an email from a Pegasystems spokesperson on Monday.'

Managers in design centre are prepping for job cuts. Design usually runs lean, and misses the cuts happening in the rest of the company. If this is correct, GM is in trouble. Design has been told in the past that if studios are cutting there are issues coming.


North Star Health Alliance Plans Management Layoffs in New York

North Star Health Alliance announced plans to eliminate about 120 positions in New York, with management roles most affected. The layoffs follow the loss of state funding in December after New York officials said the organization failed to provide sufficient spending details.

North Star disputes the claim, saying it has been transparent and is seeking continued state support. The job cuts will also affect some clinical and non-clinical staff.


Any guesses to the total body count from today's massacre?

Former (as of 10 AM today) GAE - just wondering how many lost their jobs today. Serious questions need to be asked how the allegedly Best Network with Industry Leading 2025 quarterly results has dropped its stock price from $270 to $183 in 9 mo's. Good luck to all, I'm lucky & will retire as the package bridges me to age 65 & Medicare with good savings over 30 yrs at Vz. Such a shame and so far from the celebration of Q3 results - I guess $85B in '25, up from $81B in '24 and $78B in '23 just isnt enough??!!

shell leaders have fake jobs

when gretchen, US chair left, her “responsibilities” went to the head of deepwater colette

now that Mike Curtin of AI group DTO is leaving, his “responsibilities” will go to SVP Kate Platanova. all this guy cancelled his retirement, took over Dan Jeavons job ousting him from the company in the process, then retired anyway less than a year later. what a weaselly tu-d, good riddance.

allen cockriel CISO leaves. his “responsibilities” go to owen o’,connel SVP and CIO IDT services and operations

these people’s jobs are fake as he-l if they can be picked up with no sweat by the other so called executives. this company is so full of fake jobs and it starts right at the top. but they are never the ones who get cut, they leave for an even better job or retire and we pay their way then simply don’t back backfill their fake roles

if i was a shareholder at a board meeting i would ask wael to fire more executives to fund his buybacks. its much cheaper and better optics than the workers layoffs of little people


Verizon is already backfilling jobs with contractors in Cary

Saw on LinkedIn two postings from contracting companies with job titles “Telcommunications Specialist” for Seneca Resources Company, LLC and “Network Management Operations Manager III” for Apex Systems.

The latter specifically mentions using tools such as VEC, 3 days a week in the office in Cary, contract to hire. “Manager” being a bit of a misnomer. The job description read like an engineer job, so I imagine they mean Engineer III. Pay range $41-48/hr.


Principal Applied Scientist

After so many layoffs, needing to go to market to fill the position of Principal Applied Scientist in Enterprise AI team is not a good look:

What happened to the robust pipeline of talent that was spruiked so enthusiastically by IT leaders only a few years ago? What happened to all the digital scholar wunderkinds who were going to change the company?

It looks especially bad after so many other high-profile departures from Chevron, especially in the IT and data segments.

And who in their right mind with those skills and located in the US would work for Chevron?

(I wonder if whoever lands the role will have to do a Skills Insights assessment, and whether they will be allowed to score above “fundamentals” with their lack of Chevron experience?)
