“I view that as a last resort and, so, mass layoffs is not something that we’re talking about at this moment,” said Cook, in an interview with CNBC.

Major tech companies like Google and Facebook parent Meta have laid off tens of thousands of employees in recent months amid economic uncertainty, after aggressively hiring during the COVID-19 pandemic. Apple has not made any mass layoffs of full-time employees, but the company has reportedly laid off some corporate employees within its retail teams, let go of some recruiter contractors, and stopped hiring for some roles.
