Rivian Layoffs Small Number of Salaried Positions

Rivian today announced that it had eliminated a small number of salaried positions, representing less than 1% of total employees. In April, Rivian increased its manufacturing efficiency enabling them to build the same number of vehicles as 2023 but with 2 shifts instead of 3. The majority of employees affected are a result of that move. Rivian did confirm no hourly employees were impacted by today’s layoff.
