Job Market: Quiet December, Tough Reality
Update: 2026-01-08
Description
U.S. companies announced fewer job cuts in December, but experts caution that these plans may not reflect reality. Historically, December is a quiet month for layoff news, and actual payroll numbers show losses in business services, IT, and manufacturing. While service jobs stabilized, manufacturing headcount shrank for the eleventh straight month. White-collar workers in tech, consulting, and media face a tough job market as larger firms pause aggressive rehiring. Artificial intelligence and headwinds like tariffs and federal cuts contribute to a slowing market with an uneven recovery. Checkout Solipillow.com
