In May 2025, PricewaterhouseCoopers laid off 1,500 American workers, about 3% of its U.S. workforce. This followed another reduction of 1,800 U.S.-based employees just months earlier in late 2024. Publicly, PwC blamed "historically low attrition rates" and "overcapacity." However, the real narrative reveals a betrayal: While American workers faced layoffs, PwC intensified its investment in India... In just three years, PwC reached three-quarters of this target, adding 6,161 jobs in FY24 and a total of 68,681 jobs over the previous two years, bringing its global workforce to more than 370,000. However, this growth appears to exclude American professionals, suggesting that the anticipated "future workforce" is increasingly foreign and displacing U.S. workers. The promise of 100,000 new jobs stands in jarring contrast with their recent U.S. layoffs.
