This is the best summary I could come up with:
Apple issued a return-to-office mandate in March, requiring employees to go into the office at least three days a week, Platformer’s Zoë Schiffer wrote in an X post.
Schiffer said Apple was monitoring employee attendance through badge records and that it would issue warnings to staff that didn’t comply with the mandate.Apple then scrapped roles in its corporate retail division in April, Business Insider’s Hugh Langley reported.
Unlike most other major tech firms including Meta, Amazon, and Google, Apple has been able to avoid making mass layoffs to its workforce since last year.
Microsoft reached a market cap of $2.89 trillion, while Apple’s fell slightly to $2.87 trillion.Tim Cook’s company has faced cooling demand for its iPhone in China as its rival Huawei makes headway.
It’s set to launch its Apple’s Vision Pro headset in February, which one analyst said is expected to sell out soon after its release.
Apple didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, made outside of normal working hours.
The original article contains 366 words, the summary contains 167 words. Saved 54%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Worthless summary, worthless paywalled site, worthless headline because “dozens” could literally mean 13 execs were asked to move, and I could care less what they need to do to survive layoffs

120 is divisible by 12, so realistically “dozens” is pretty accurate.
Definitely not executives.
But you do you and keep being angry about shitty AI summaries and shitty paywalls instead of doing something about it so you can just read the article and stop whinging.
OK, you still had to do legwork to make this post worthwhile.
Why not post the non-paywalled version so people can be actually informed by a post instead of hoping to be informed?
I do appreciate you adding the supplemental info, though, and thank you for providing the actual context. You’re correct, 121 is quite a bit different than 13, one might even say they are asking HUNDREDS of employees to relocate. Would be a more worthy title than dozens, imo.
Because I already did you one better, I gave you an option that will get you past (nearly) all paywalls, indefinitely.
Also, I’ve had inconsistent and spotty results with archive sites, and to top it off, archive.is and it’s many offshoots poison DNS requests to CloudFlare in response to their privacy-respecting network framework.

Sure, layoffs suck for anybody, but I’d be curious to know why you care about execs. Unless, of course, you had meant to use the expression “couldn’t care less.”
Louder for the people in the back: CONSTRUCTIVE DISCHARGE.
If only there were a way, maybe through some cool technology, for these people to be able to work from far away so they didn’t have to be geographically located near each other.
