Tencent hired over 3,000 employees in Q3.

This signals growth after previous cutbacks. By September’s end, its workforce increased 3% year-on-year to 108,823, according to its earnings report.

This upswing in hiring began in Q2 when Tencent added 719 positions.

In recent years, its staff count declined from a peak in March 2022 due to cost-cutting prompted by regulatory and economic challenges.
