FedEx is planning to reduce its European workforce by cutting 1,700 to 2,000 back-office and commercial positions over the next 18 months as part of its cost-reduction strategy. This move is expected to affect some of the nearly 50,000 employees in the region and could save the company between $125 million and $175 million annually starting from 2026-2027. However, the job cuts will incur costs of $250 million to $375 million in redundancy payments and related expenses. The restructuring will involve eliminating certain roles, merging teams within back-office and commercial operations, and consolidating some activities across the region into select shared activity centers.

Sources suggest that the upcoming layoffs may be on par with or even exceed the previous round. The announcement is expected to align with Cisco’s fourth-quarter results.
