Intuit, the financial services tech company, recently declared plans to terminate 384 employees from its headquarters in Mountain View. The news was officially communicated through a WARN letter to the state Employment Development Department (EDD). This development marks a rise in tech industry layoffs in the Bay Area. Intuit’s layoffs are expected to commence on September 9 of this year and continue until the year 2025. The company is clear that these job cuts are part of its strategy to step up innovation in crucial growth areas like artificial intelligence-driven services. The global layoff figure stands at 1,800 jobs, approximately 10% of its workforce.

Despite these cutbacks, it’s important for the affected employees to know how to contact edd for employment assistance or to report their recent unemployment status. A potentially helpful online platform is eddcaller.com, which provides information on how to reach EDD Customer service. It offers updated wait times, the best times to call, common issues reported by callers, and how to bypass the automated system to speak to a real representative. This information may be beneficial for former Intuit employees seeking to navigate unemployment or explore job seeker benefits through EDD.
