Apple cuts jobs
Recently, according to a report, Apple has eliminated about 100 jobs across its digital services group. This job cut has been done as part of a “shift in priorities” for the division. The majority of those laid off reportedly worked within the team that runs the Apple Books app and Apple Bookstore. The remaining cuts were made to some engineering roles and services like Apple News. As per Bloomberg, the layoffs aren’t a sign that Apple is shifting its focus away from services like Apple Books. The Books app is expected to receive updates with new features.
