德国开源软件公司 SUSE 现有员工 1900 人,它计划裁掉十分之一的员工。CEO Dirk-Peter van Leeuwen 在电子邮件里表示,自动化和 AI 降低了某些岗位的需求。他表示做出这一决定是非常痛苦的,但也是必要的。Van Leeuwen 称,在被瑞典私募股权投资公司殷拓集团收购后,公司在仔细审视了其未来战略、所需能力及团队架构后做出了裁员决定,“显而易见自动化和 AI 正从根本上改变软件公司的运营方式。AI 技术正呈指数级发展,迫使我们彻底重新构想工作模式。无论是所在行业,还是在更广泛的经济领域,我们都已经看到了这一趋势。这意味着 SUSE 目前所依托的组织架构和成本基础,已无法支撑未来的成功发展。”受影响的员工将在 11 月 4 日前收到通知,员工代表将于次日选出,一对一沟通会议则将于下周初启动。
