7.1
Whoop CEO Will Ahmed said on Mar. 5, 2026 that many companies blaming AI for layoffs may instead be cutting staff because their businesses are underperforming. He contrasted broad industry cuts — including Block's 4,000+, Amazon's 16,000 and Morgan Stanley's roughly 2,500 reductions — with Whoop's plan to hire more than 600 roles and expand its workforce by up to 75% globally.
