About

In November 2024, robotics company iRobot laid off 105 employees, representing about 16% of its remaining workforce. This is part of an operational restructuring plan announced in an SEC filing. The layoffs follow a much larger round earlier in 2024, when roughly 350 jobs (31% of the workforce at the time) were cut after Amazon's planned $1.7 billion acquisition of the Roomba maker collapsed due to regulatory hurdles. CEO Gary Cohen stated the new operating model aims to increase product development efficiency with significantly fewer resources. Since the start of 2024, iRobot's global workforce has been reduced by approximately 50%.
