“This is a broad move designed to make Amdocs a flexible, efficient and less hierarchical company, while adapting work processes to the AI era as well as the changing demands of the company's customers.”
Summary
Amdocs began pre-layoff hearings in Israel in June 2026 under a reorganization led by new CEO Shimie Hortig that is expected to cut 7% to 10% of its roughly 29,000 staff. Amdocs describes an operating-model redesign without mentioning AI; Israeli business press ties the move to adapting to the AI era.
Evidence notes
- · Ctech reported on 24 June 2026 that employees in Israel had received summonses for pre-layoff hearings, confirming the reorganization had moved from plan to action.
- · Amdocs' own statement describes redesigning its operating model and does not mention AI; the AI link comes from Globes (via The Jerusalem Post) and Ctech framing, so the event is cited_but_unclear with low confidence.
- · Globes reported 2,700 to 3,000 dismissals (about 10%); Ctech reported 7% to 10% of about 29,000 staff. Amdocs has not confirmed a figure.
- · The previous LayoffHedge and TheLayoff.com sources were aggregator/community pages and were replaced with the underlying publisher reports.
