U.S. energy major Exxon Mobil will lay off 2,000 workers globally as part of a long-term restructuring plan, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, citing a memo. The reductions represent about 3% to 4% of Exxon's global workforce, the Bloomberg report said. Global energy companies have announced thousands of job cuts this year, as the industry navigates weaker crude oil prices and a rapid consolidation. On Monday, Canadian shale producer Imperial Oil, in which Exxon is a major shareholder, announced plans to cut 20% of its workforce and shutter business in Calgary. Exxon employed 61,000 people globally at the end of 2024, according to a regulatory filing.
