Wix is laying off approximately 1,000 employees, roughly 20% of its workforce, in the largest round of cuts in the company's history. CEO and co-founder Avishai Abrahami announced the decision on 28 May in a message posted publicly on X and sent simultaneously to all staff. He framed the restructuring as a company-wide change driven by two forces: a currency mismatch that is making the company's Israeli workforce increasingly expensive in dollar terms, and a fundamental shift in how software companies need to operate in the age of AI.
