Huawei Earns Recognition As Greece’s Top Employer For Third Year Running

Huawei has once again earned a prestigious spot among Greece’s top employers for 2025, according to the Top Employers Institute, marking the third consecutive year it has received this distinction at the national level, and the sixth year running in Europe.

This honour, awarded by the independent organisation, recognises companies worldwide for their outstanding practices in key areas including Human Resources Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning and Development, Diversity and Inclusion, and Employee well-being.

The award highlights Huawei’s unwavering commitment to creating a supportive and dynamic work environment that fosters employee growth. This is further reflected in the company’s ongoing investment in educational and professional development programmes. Huawei also continues its mission to drive digital transformation and sustainable socio-economic development, delivering meaningful benefits to Greek society as a whole.

Eliza Apostolou, HR Manager at Huawei Greece, shared: “We are incredibly proud that Huawei has been named a top employer for the third year in a row in Greece. This achievement underscores our dedication to fostering a workplace that nurtures both innovation and the well-being of our people. We thank all our employees for their contributions — this success is the result of our collective effort.”

As part of its commitment to talent development, Huawei is also amplifying its efforts to create equal opportunities in the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector. A key example is the continued funding of the Huawei Women in Tech training initiative. Now in its second year, this programme partners with the Public Employment Service (DYPA) and Interlei to offer skill-building opportunities to unemployed women aged 25 to 45. The goal is to enhance their digital competencies and help close the skills gap, empowering women to thrive in the modern workforce.

Monday.com To Cut 20% Of Workforce As It Expands AI Strategy

Monday.com, the Israeli workplace software company, is laying off about 630 employees, or roughly 20% of its workforce, as it restructures the business to support a leaner operating model and accelerate investment in artificial intelligence.

Restructuring Around AI

In a regulatory filing, the company said the workforce reduction is intended to better align resources with its AI strategy, which has become a central focus of its product development.

Earlier this year, Monday.com expanded its AI offering by introducing the Monday.com AI Work Platform, designed to integrate AI agents into day-to-day business workflows.

The platform includes a no-code app builder, a customizable AI agent, workflow automation tools and a chatbot capable of generating reports, updating dashboards and assisting with routine tasks.

Part Of A Wider Industry Trend

Monday.com’s restructuring reflects a broader shift across the technology sector, where companies are reducing costs while increasing investment in AI development and infrastructure.

According to Layoffs.fyi, tech layoffs rose sharply in May, with 78% of companies citing AI-related restructuring as a factor behind job cuts this year. More than 122,000 technology roles have been eliminated worldwide in 2026, according to the tracker.

Restructuring Costs

Monday.com expects to record restructuring charges of between $45 million and $55 million as a result of the layoffs. The move highlights how software companies are reallocating resources to support AI-focused products and services as competition in the sector intensifies.
