A record for jet order should provide some job safety over the next few years (and possibly hiring if they increase their output instead of just adding to a longer backlog) for people working on the manufacturing side of Airbus.

But on the development side, the situation is less clear. There is no major development project anymore since A350 is in operation. And there are no signs yet of an upcoming major program based on their research activities for hydrogen-powered of more electric airliners.

So there could still be layoffs or downsizing due to hiring less engineers than the ones that go to retirement.
