Oracle cuts about 500 jobs in Romania as AI restructuring rolls on

On the morning of June 25, Oracle began telling roughly 500 of its Romanian employees that their jobs were gone, part of the company’s long-running global reorganisation toward cloud and artificial intelligence.

Oracle has not commented publicly on the exact number of local roles affected.

It is the second such round in Romania in under a year. Oracle cut about 400 positions there in late 2025, in what was then the largest restructuring in the company’s history, and the new wave lands on an operation that employs around 4,000 people locally, one of Oracle’s larger engineering and services footprints in central and eastern Europe.

By the end of 2025, its three main Romanian entities together employed 4,288, according to figures filed with the finance ministry.
