Up to 20% layoffs! This wave of “layoffs” in the autonomous driving circle is coming fiercely
Summary: Nearly 10 autonomous driving companies have announced layoffs this year.
Less than a month after Apple gave up on “car-making” and drastically abolished its autonomous driving department, another company in the autonomous driving field announced that it would reduce its personnel. Recently, the American lidar giant Luminar announced that it would lay off 20% of its employees and conduct a comprehensive transformation of the company. As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of people in the autonomous driving circle.
From the influx of competition in the past few years to the cooling of enthusiasm now, the autonomous driving industry has been facing two real problems: slow development progress and difficulty in business implementation. Before commercialization can achieve profitability, many companies choose to lay off employees in order to reduce costs, and even large companies choose to terminate autonomous driving projects. Since this year, many autonomous driving companies around the world have announced layoffs.
