The Biggest Layoffs by Employer
10,318 employers have filed WARN layoff notices in our database, cutting 2,270,172 jobs. 983 of them filed in two or more states. Ranked by total jobs cut, United Airlines leads with 30,956 across 5 states; by reach, Walmart spans the most, 20 states.
◆ Every other tracker shows one employer as dozens of disconnected rows. We fuse the names a company files under, store numbers, site codes, legal suffixes, into one, so its real national footprint is visible in a single place. Figures are tracked WARN filings, not all US layoffs.

Questions
United Airlines, with 30,956 jobs cut across 5 states in 16 WARN filings, is the largest by total headcount in our tracked data.
Walmart has filed WARN notices in 20 states, the widest national footprint in our data.
Amazon shows the largest year-on-year increase: 15,897 jobs cut in the last 12 months versus 432 the year before. See the "Accelerating now" list.
Other trackers show a company's filings as separate rows on separate state pages. We resolve the many names one employer files under (store numbers, site codes, legal suffixes) into a single company, so you see its true national footprint, total jobs and every state at once.
No. It's every WARN notice we track from state labor departments. WARN covers larger layoffs and closures (roughly 50+ jobs); smaller cuts and non-filing employers aren't required to report.
