I was about to repost this elsewhere, and also noted that there’s literally no sources on this. While it’s most certainly something I would enjoy to be true… is it, actually?

What is this website used as a source? It doesn’t have an about page or even proper navigation. Is it some sort of blog?

Ya, I agree it looks like blogspam, but even most blogspam links to their sources.

Looks like the Times of India broke the original story based on Benioff’s podcast comments:
“According to CNBC, CEO Marc Benioff revealed in a podcast that Salesforce had trimmed its support workforce from 9,000 to about 5,000 people through AI deployment. The company later clarified that it had “successfully redeployed hundreds of [those] employees into other areas like professional services, sales, and customer success.”
