April 26, 2023 : Clothing retailer Gap is cutting over 500 jobs as part of its ongoing restructuring efforts to reduce costs and improve efficiency. The job cuts are expected to result in $300 million in savings, with the first half expected in fiscal 2023.

Gap’s shares fell about 6% following the news of the layoffs.
