Culture Amp
Employee engagement and people analytics platform. Melbourne-based.
Culture Amp operates offices in Melbourne, San Francisco, New York, London, and Belgrade. The Belgrade office was established through the acquisition of Serbian startup Orgnostic in 2024, focused on AI-driven people analytics. No evidence of cost-driven offshoring.
The Story
- November 2025Culture Amp cut 60 jobs while citing 'AI focus grows' as the reason. The Melbourne-based HR tech company was still actively advertising engineering roles in Melbourne and Sydney at the time of the cuts. [AFR]
- November 2025The cuts primarily affected non-engineering roles. Engineers were kept while customer-facing and operational staff were let go, suggesting the 'AI' framing was selective. The company continued hiring engineers while cutting other departments. [SmartCompany]

This list is not complete, and never will be
If a company isn't listed here, that doesn't mean it doesn't offshore. And every number is the lowest we can prove, so the real figures can often be higher.

This list is not complete, and never will be
If a company isn't listed here, that doesn't mean it doesn't offshore. And every number is the lowest we can prove, so the real figures can often be higher.
This started as an ASX 200 project and mostly still is. It has widened as stories landed from outside that list, so it now also covers employers that aren't ASX-listed, like Canva, Allianz Australia, SS&C and Crown Resorts, along with government departments and agencies. Companies get added when something surfaces about them, not by working through a list in order.
Australian companies are under no obligation to disclose where their work is done, and there is no register of offshored jobs. Everything here comes from something that surfaced publicly: an annual report, a modern slavery statement, a news article, a union statement, a government contract, or a tip from someone who was there.
So an absence usually means nobody has reported on that company and we haven't got to it yet, not that it keeps its work onshore. Some of the biggest offshorers say nothing at all. And because each figure counts only what a source actually stated, the real numbers can often run higher, sometimes much higher.
Every figure links to the source it came from, so you can judge it yourself rather than take our word for it. If you know something that is missing or wrong, tell us. Corrections are published, not quietly buried.
