Apple Inc. has laid off around 100 employees in its digital services division, marking a notable shift in organizational priorities, particularly affecting the Apple Books team.
The layoffs primarily impacted engineering roles within the services group led by Eddy Cue, indicating a reassessment of the strategic importance of services like Apple Books.
Despite the cuts, Apple Books will continue to receive new features, although its priority has been downgraded, suggesting ongoing support but less emphasis on growth.
Services have been a key revenue driver for Apple, increasing from less than 10% of sales a decade ago to over 22%, yet job cuts highlight pressures amidst growth.
