Southern Glazer: 50 jobs cut
Southern Glazer, a major beverage distributor, reportedly laid off around 50 warehouse workers at their Las Vegas location on March 8, 2024. According to affected employees, the company replaced their roles with AI robots that now handle picking products and building pallets. The workers described seeing the machines firsthand before being terminated, while drivers remained unaffected as automation had not yet reached those positions.
