Monday.com Cuts About 20% of Its Workforce to Rebuild Around AI
- On 22 July 2026 monday.com initiated a restructuring plan that reduces its current workforce by approximately 20%, to align the company with its strategic focus on the AI Work Platform[1].
- Co-founders Roy Mann and Eran Zinman told staff about 620 employees would leave worldwide[2][3]; around 350 of the roles are at the Tel Aviv headquarters[5]. TechCrunch put the cut at about 630[4].
- The founders wrote that "the organization we built for our previous chapter is not the organization that fits the new AI era", and that the company is cutting management layers, forming smaller autonomous teams and changing how it sells to and supports customers[2][3].
- Management said "improving margins was not the purpose of this decision" and that the cuts were not made to replace people with AI; it plans to reinvest most of the savings in people, products and AI[2].
- monday.com expects $45-55 million in net charges: $30-35 million for severance and benefits, $30-35 million for impairment of office space, partly offset by about $15 million in share-based compensation credits, mostly in the second half of 2026[1].
- Alongside the cut it raised its 2026 non-GAAP operating margin outlook to about 15% from 13% and kept revenue growth guidance at 19-20%[1].
