JPMorgan Chase is the largest bank in the United States by assets, formed through the 2000 merger of J.P. Morgan and Chase Manhattan. The company operates in investment banking, commercial banking, asset management, and consumer banking. It employs over 310,000 people globally, with major offices in New York, Chicago, Columbus, and internationally.
JPMorgan Chase conducts regular workforce adjustments, often tied to branch consolidations, technology migrations, and business line restructurings. The company cut about 5,000 positions in 2024 as part of ongoing efficiency efforts, though it simultaneously hired in technology and compliance. WARN filings from JPMorgan typically reflect branch closures and back-office consolidations rather than company-wide reduction events.
JPMorgan has been among the most aggressive banks in technology investment. CEO Jamie Dimon has consistently emphasized technology spending, with the bank allocating over $15 billion annually to technology. The company was an early adopter of cloud computing and built substantial in-house AI and machine learning capabilities for fraud detection, trading, and customer service.
JPMorgan is expanding its use of AI across the business, including a proprietary large language model for investment research and customer-facing AI assistants. The bank continues to close physical branches as customers shift to digital banking. Dimon has called AI potentially as transformative as the printing press and the steam engine for the financial industry.

Severance is negotiable more often than people assume, and the leverage is largest before a notice lands. Financial Samurai's How To Engineer Your Layoff walks through how those conversations actually go, with real severance examples.
