Cloudflare layoff risk analysis
Cloudflare risk trend over the last 90 days
Across the last 82 days of scoring, Cloudflare's layoff risk eased 29 points, moving from 83 on June 6, 2026 to 54 today. It peaked at 83 on June 6, 2026 and bottomed out at 54 on August 26, 2026, a 29-point spread over the period. That leaves Cloudflare in the moderate band today, and the size of the swing means the current reading is worth re-checking weekly rather than treating as settled.
Cloudflare layoff history
PinkSlip has recorded 2 confirmed layoff events at Cloudflare, running from January 2024 to May 2026. Together they account for roughly 1,140 disclosed roles. Source: layoffs.fyi. Recent events weigh more than older ones — each decays on a half-life instead of dropping out on a fixed date — so the most recent filing on May 7, 2026 carries the most weight in today's score.
How Cloudflare compares to other tech employers
Cloudflare (NET) is an Edge Computing company tracked as part of the NASDAQ-100 and currently scores 53 out of 100, where 0 is the safest reading and 100 the riskiest. That is riskier than 92% of the 78 tech employers PinkSlip tracks. Over the past week the score eased 5 points, and over the past month it eased 14 points.
What is driving the Cloudflare score
Cloudflare's score is driven mainly by the public record — confirmed layoff filings and the financial and news signals around them. No crowd reports have come in over the past 30 days, so nothing is currently corroborating or contradicting that record from the inside. Absence of reports is deliberately not treated as evidence of safety — a quiet company and an unobserved one look identical in public data, so the model never discounts risk for silence alone. At this level the signals do not suggest imminent action, though the score is recomputed every morning and a single filing or earnings miss can move it quickly.
Cloudflare layoff risk — frequently asked questions
Has Cloudflare had layoffs recently?
PinkSlip has tracked 2 layoff events at Cloudflare in the past year, the latest on May 7, 2026, totalling roughly 1,140 disclosed roles. Undisclosed headcounts are excluded from that total, so treat it as a floor rather than a full count.
How is the Cloudflare layoff risk score calculated?
PinkSlip blends 10+ public data sources — historical layoff events, quarterly earnings, hiring and news signals, and anonymous crowd reports — into a single 0–100 layoff risk score. Signals are weighted by how predictive they have been historically, and each one decays on a half-life as it ages rather than expiring on a fixed date — so a layoff announced last month weighs roughly twice as much as the same layoff two months earlier, and fades out gradually instead of disappearing overnight.
How often does the Cloudflare risk score update?
Every day. An automated job re-scrapes the public sources each morning and recomputes every tracked company's score, so the 7-day movement shown above always compares against freshly ingested data. Quarterly earnings refresh on each company's own reporting schedule.
Where does PinkSlip's Cloudflare layoff data come from?
The layoff events listed above are sourced from layoffs.fyi. Across all companies PinkSlip aggregates state WARN notices, layoffs.fyi, quarterly earnings filings, and layoff coverage from major business and tech outlets. Everything is public data — no employer submissions, and no paywalled sources.
