The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Wix announced a 20% workforce reduction affecting 1,000 employees, its largest layoff to date, citing AI as justification—a move that drew predominantly critical and skeptical press coverage. The company's AI rationale for the cuts has faced sustained scrutiny from major outlets rather than endorsement.
