Summary

PayPal is reducing its Israeli workforce by approximately 70 employees out of about 300 staff, representing nearly a quarter of its local team. The cuts affect the Tel Aviv R&D center, which works on real-time transaction analysis, fraud detection, anti–money-laundering systems, and product/user experience improvements. The reduction is part of a global reorganization intended to cut costs, simplify structures, and shift more investment toward artificial intelligence and strategic technologies. The article frames the change as a significant adjustment within PayPal’s Israeli hub rather than a peripheral sales-office action.

PayPal Holdings, Inc. cut 70 jobs affecting its research and development team.

That is roughly 0.3% of the 27,200 people PayPal Holdings, Inc. employs.
