Visa is cutting 7% of its workforce as AI reshapes work
Visa is eliminating about 2,600 roles—roughly 7% of its workforce—in an efficiency push reported by CNBC. The largest reductions are expected in technology and product, with cuts across the company. AI is part of the context for how Visa is redesigning work, but a headcount reduction does not by itself prove that 2,600 jobs were directly automated. The measurable impact is immediate: thousands of workers bear the cost while investors and managers wait to see whether a smaller organization can actually deliver safer, faster payments.
