IronFX, BDSwiss, Vantage and Other Four Companies Are Hiring Now
Another flood of financial companies are conducting mass layoffs to cut cost. Deutsche Bank, which reported this week 30% drop in fourth-quarter profit, unveiled plans to axe 3,500 back office jobs. Nasdaq will slash hundreds of jobs.
Let's turn our attention to fintech sector. PayPal will slash approximately 2,500 jobs, or 9% of its workforce, to drive profitable growth. It wasn’t the only one. The payments and crypto company Block started letting go about 1000 employees. In addition, Okta has eliminated 400 full-time jobs, 7% of its headcount. And this came a day after another major cybersecurity vendor Proofpoint disclosed layoffs of 280 jobs.
From above, we can learn that the most sacked are techies, which is most likely caused by the impact of the development of artificial intelligence.
The current employment environment remains far from ideal. Nevertheless, Fazzaco found that this week there are multiple financial firms, brokerages and fintech firms in particular, are strengthening their tech and sales teams with new hires. Let's look at what jobs they're offering and what are the responsibilities.
