JPMorgan Chase eliminating hundreds of jobs in February - Samfiru Tumarkin LLP

What’s going on at JPMorgan Chase?

JPMorgan Chase (JPMorgan) has kicked off one of its several planned workforce reductions in 2025 — eliminating hundreds of jobs in February.

According to reports, the bank is cutting fewer than 1,000 roles while it has 14,000 open positions.

“We continue to hire in many areas and work hard to redeploy impacted employees,” a spokesperson said — adding that moves like this are part of the “regular management of the business.”

JPMorgan didn’t provide details on when the next planned workforce reduction will take place.
