Autodesk Restructures, Should You Buy, Sell, or Hold ADSK Stock?

Autodesk plans to eliminate approximately 1,000 jobs, or 7% of its workforce, to reallocate spending towards cloud platforms and AI. The stock price rose 4.8% after the announcement, ending a stagnant performance last year and a difficult start to 2026. Autodesk is shifting from a traditional sales approach to a subscription-based model, expected to improve pricing control and create predictable sales streams. The company plans to complete the restructuring by the end of fiscal Q4 2027.
