TikTok Cuts 600 Jobs at Its Irish Operation in 2025
Published
TikTok's operation in Ireland employed 2,108 people in 2025, according to recent figures. This is a drop from 2,708 staff in 2024, meaning the company lost around 600 jobs in one year. The reduction is significant for the company's Irish workforce and for the wider technology sector in the country.
The largest change was in sales and marketing. This department fell from 735 employees to 349, a loss of 386 roles. The figures show that most of the job cuts in Ireland came from this part of the business. Other departments were not described in the available information.
TikTok has a major European base in Ireland, and its staff numbers there are closely watched. Many global technology companies have chosen Ireland for their European headquarters because of its business environment and skilled workforce. Changes in staffing at these firms can therefore affect employment and the local economy.
The information does not explain the reasons for the reduction. Readers should look for further updates from the company or from official sources to understand how the changes may affect TikTok's future plans in Ireland.
