• The layoffs include roughly 600 jobs at General Motors’ tech campus near Detroit.
• The layoffs represent about 1.3% of the company’s global salaried workforce of 76,000 as of the end of last year.

DETROIT – General Motors is laying off more than 1,000 salaried employees globally in its software and services division following a review to streamline the unit’s operations, CNBC has learned.

The layoffs, including roughly 600 jobs at GM’s tech campus near Detroit, come less than six months after leadership changes overseeing the operations, including former Apple executive Mike Abbott leaving the automaker due to health reasons.

 

“As we build GM’s future, we must simplify for speed and excellence, make bold choices, and prioritize the investments that will have the greatest impact,” a GM spokesman said in an emailed statement. “As a result, we’re reducing certain teams within the Software and Services organization. We are grateful to those who helped establish a strong foundation that positions GM to lead moving forward.”

GM declined to disclose the entire number of layoffs, but a source familiar with the action confirmed more than 1,000 salaried employees would be laid off, including 600 in Warren, Michigan. Impacted employees were notified Monday morning.

A CNBC report said that the GM layoffs are roughly 1.3 percent of automaker’s global salaried workforce of 76,000. The report also said that the staff impacted by the layoffs were informed about it via mail on Monday.

The layoffs come amid new efforts by the automakers to lower the costs in wake of downturn fears. Many are now splurging billions on emerging so-called software-defined vehicles and EV markets, the CNBC report said.
