Oracle Seattle layoffs: what Washington's WARN database shows about the 359 job cuts starting Nov. 13
Oracle has told Washington state that it will permanently lay off 359 workers in Seattle starting Friday, Nov. 13, 2026. The notice sits in the state Employment Security Department’s WARN database, which is public but can only be read through a search form, a few rows at a time. This page shows what the database holds on Oracle and which other Seattle-area layoffs it lists for the coming weeks.
Caution: a WARN notice is the employer’s filing with the state, not a list of people. The database gives no names, job titles, teams or reasons, and for these records it offers no notice document to open.

Other Seattle-area layoffs starting on or after Nov. 9
These are the notices among the 90 most recently received by the state (May 21 to Nov. 4, 2026) that have a start date on or after Nov. 9, 2026 and that list a place in King, Pierce, Snohomish or Kitsap county, or are filed as statewide or remote.

How to look up a notice yourself
- Open the state’s search form (linked above).
- Type a company name and choose the company search.
- Read the table that comes back. The newest notices are listed first, 15 to a page.
Limits of this page
- The database was read on Nov. 9, 2026, at about 10 p.m. Pacific time. Employers can amend or withdraw notices, and new ones are added as they arrive.
- Job titles, teams and office addresses are not public in this database, so this page cannot say which roles are affected.
- The second table is drawn from the 90 most recently received notices, not from the whole database. A notice filed before May 21, 2026 with a start date still ahead would not appear in it.
- The worker counts are the employer’s own figures. This page did not ask Oracle for comment.
