About

Autonomous vehicle company Motional laid off approximately 550 employees, representing around 40% of its workforce, in a major restructuring effort in May 2024. The cuts affected nearly every team and office, including high-level departures like the COO, and led to the winding down of offices in Milpitas and Venice. This downsizing coincides with the company pausing commercial operations and delaying its robotaxi service launch until 2026, as it aims to conserve capital and refocus on improving its core technology and business model.
