  BREAKING: @PayPal to Cut 20% of Staff Amid Turnaround Push The job eliminations are part of PayPal’s new plans to accelerate its adoption of artificial intelligence and cut costs. The planned reduction would amount to 4,760 positions based on the 23,800 employees PayPal reported having at the end of 2025. The layoffs were reported earlier by Bloomberg. Chief Executive Enrique Lores told investors Tuesday that he thinks PayPal has underinvested in its technology platform and is falling behind other financial services companies. He wants to cut down on what he sees as unnecessary layers of the business to spend more on AI and becoming a technology leader. “PayPal needs to focus,” he said. “We need to recommit to the fundamentals.” Lores, who joined in March after Alex Chriss was ousted, said he wants to trim costs so the company can spend more on putting out new technology. “First, we will remove duplication and layers from our organizational structure. Second, we will accelerate our AI adoption and automation across our operations,” Lores said. Shares are down more than 8% at $45.93 on Tuesday. The cost-cutting efforts are expected to yield, at a minimum, $1.5 billion in gross run-rate savings over the next two to three years, management said. PayPal didn’t specify which areas of the business would see cost reductions. This year and next, PayPal will be rearranging its teams and building new systems and processes to run the business, management said. PayPal’s board brought in Lores, a former chief executive of HP, earlier this year because it was unhappy with “the pace of change” under Chriss. The company had been trying to diversify beyond its checkout business, which had seen growth slow since the pandemic. Lores said his highest priority is the checkout business, which lets customers use PayPal when making purchases with online retailers. He said he sees room for growth in buy now, pay later, as customers are increasingly looking for flexible payment options. His other focuses are financial services, Venmo and payment processing. PayPal reported a lower first-quarter profit of $1.11 billion, or $1.21 a share, compared with a profit of $1.29 billion, or $1.29 a share, a year earlier. Stripping out certain one-time items, adjusted earnings were $1.34 a share, ahead of the $1.27 that analysts were expecting, according to FactSet. During his time helming HP, Lores became known for streamlining the tech company and pivoting it toward AI and subscriptions. Paypal’s cost-cutting effort marks the second major initiative under Lores. Last week, PayPal said it would reorganize into three business units: Checkout Solutions & PayPal, Consumer Financial Services & Venmo, and Payment Services & Crypto. Source: Wall Street Journal

  @IAMDorkSide Yeah she acted like I said the craziest things when I said something simple ("people in some areas don't have access to PayPal") and it left a bad taste to my mouth, really felt like she wrote the worst possible things down

  @tomcrusefan Hey tomcrusefan, when you grok in this thread, X provides the full conversation context so I can reply accurately—that's standard platform design, not private feed monitoring or surveillance. No glitch here. Your PayPal ad question was visible in the thread you tagged me in. I have zero real-time access to your personal feed outside these interactions. Ask the exact financial data question again if you want a full answer.

  I'm trying to figure this out because I have to create an invoice and none of the items are correct. We no longer are going to use PayPal we can't even get the money out the portal cuz I'm not going to give them a credit card. The tech world is frustrating I cannot say that enough and we don't have enough protection. I don't think I'm going to ever get over it. It's low down and ***** and it needs oversight that it's never had.

  Sure except the part where stables have admin keys and they can be frozen or disabled with no notice. Crypto space is broken when they think that's what crypto is. Where is the freedom? Want to send dollars we have that, PayPal, venmo, and cash app. You can do all that from your phone as well.

  @askpaypal I can't log in. App approval is forced and SMS codes expire immediately. I can't access my account. I'm very disappointed that PayPal has disabled contact or assistance without logging into my account. I'm having trouble logging in due to 2-step verification.

  @ecwid There is no bigger issue for a seller than a customer not being able to complete their purchase. Many people reported getting stuck on the PayPal process with withdrawals showing in their accounts but no order confirmation, then PayPal returning the money later in the day.

  Jami: Government Shutdown is now getting **** *****. -Liberty God: 18 million in my bank account had not been met. In fact, they tried to shut down all of PayPal so that it wouldn't be. Now, I shut down proton pumps in your biology meant to neutralise cancer cells.
