Instacart Cuts 250 Jobs in Push for Higher-Margin Businesses

August 2024 · 1 minute read

Instacart, the US grocery-delivery giant, is cutting hundreds of jobs and restructuring its leadership team as the company increasingly shifts its focus to higher-margin businesses such as advertising.

The company’s announcement on Tuesday includes 250 job cuts across the company, according to a spokesperson. That represents about 7% of the workforce. The restructuring will mean fewer incremental product updates so the company can realign its focus on higher-margin areas such as advertising and enterprise products for grocery stores, the spokesperson said.
