Overview

  • Patricia Pomies left her role as COO of Globant on July 31 by mutual agreement; the company will redistribute her responsibilities among several senior leaders rather than name a direct replacement.
  • The departure was disclosed in a Form 6-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
  • Globant’s shares fell up to 4% on Wall Street after the departure announcement, compounding a prior 29% slide following a slowdown in digital service demand.
  • The company has cut approximately 1,000 jobs—about 3% of its global workforce—and closed two Argentine offices in Ushuaia and Resistencia as part of its restructuring.
  • Globant has accelerated its shift to AI-driven solutions with new 'AI Pods' subscription offerings and a strategic alliance with OpenAI to integrate advanced models into corporate workflows.
