PALO ALTO — Tech companies have revealed plans to erase about 400 jobs in the Bay Area as sketched out in a grim new set of official reports to the state’s labor agency, representing a fresh wave of layoffs.
SAP America, Twilio and ContextLogic are among the tech companies that have posted newly disclosed intentions to trim their workforces in a big way.
The layoffs will affect tech workers in Palo Alto, San Francisco and San Ramon, the new filings with the state Employment Development Department show.
All told, the three companies have reported decisions to chop a combined 430 jobs, according to the WARN notices to EDD officials.
Here are the details for some of the most recent layoffs filed with the EDD that will trigger Bay Area tech job cuts:
SAP is cutting 224 jobs. These include a loss of 159 jobs in Palo Alto and 65 jobs in San Ramon.
Twilio is eliminating 159 jobs in San Francisco.
ContextLogic is chopping 47 jobs in San Francisco.
SAP’s cutbacks are affecting sites where the company has significant numbers of software employees.
Several years ago, SAP launched a high-profile innovation and research center in San Ramon in an effort to tap tech talent from the East Bay and San Joaquin Valley.
