I don't think there's much to lose and there's certainly plenty to gain.

With the release of the E files, ya'll know, I'm not about to type any more details than that...

I have to ask. Has anyone searched through our current BoD? Leadership Chain? Or priors who've left? I think we would all love to know the company is at least clean of that... if not much else.

Will that org be hit hard?

Is this a ploy to encourage people to quit? Where are we supposed to sit when we badge in a building but not at our center of gravity?

Been a madhouse in the building I'm in since yesterday with these cube claims.

Serious question: does anyone else feel like we’re past the ‘planning’ phase and already in the ‘waiting for the shoe to drop’ phase?

Big leadership announcements, but no full org charts below first line, no clear direction, and oddly few real comms.

Feels familiar.

Is she just a cheerleader and goes around doing meet and greets since she has failed at all her jobs and others had to take them over. Why is she still around while other real working and accomplished people are being laid off ?

Did those who took vsrp get your W2? I ensured my address was accurate.. still haven't gotten mine. If you got yours, when did you get it?

Paying a non-ceo $15m with the company and stock in this state seems irresponsible, at best.

With all the news about Paramount and their layoffs, the original Skydance has seemed to be left out in the cold. Are all the employees there being folded into Paramount or are they slowly going to be let go?

Skydance was mismanaged from inception with money infused to make it look successful now with Ellison spending his time ruining Paramount / CBS and whatever he can get his hands on will that leave the original Skydance and the freshly remodeled offices to eventually close and move whomever is left to the Paramount lot.

My ex colleagues I talk to are miserable as there is no direction.

I’m reading the layoff on 2/19 will be bigger than the one last month, and it will include Optum at Home staff that are grade level 27 and below. Anybody have information?

Our stock price is falling relative to ExxonMobil. Whatever you are doing is not working, Wael.

Not sure how you guys think

I'm part of the filtration group that Thermo purchased from Solventum. It's unclear what exactly their plans are for us, but they seem to be moving real slow to spend any capex on the things we need. I think they really underestimated how intertwined we were with both 3M and Solventum. It also seems like we spend significantly more on R&D than Thermo as a whole. Are we all sc--wed? What has thermo's timeline been in the past for cutting people after an acquisition? Thanks.

Can these clowns improve the stock price?

Convinced him to buy failed companies and waste $ and do cuts

So Alex is the one getting laid off. When will the rest of his cronies be gone so 🤔

UK staff – with the recent change and standardisation of terms, have you checked your January pay advice? I’m finding it hard to tell whether mine is correct. What I can say is that my increased pension contribution was deducted from salary, but none of it has reached my pension this month.

The email on 1/29 from the HR boss said: “In addition to those colleagues who chose to participate in the latest Voluntary Retirement Program, we plan to reduce our global workforce by approximately 2,000 roles (less than 3% of the enterprise) by the end of February.”

All the teams I’m aware of were cut between 5-20% on 1/29. So how is it possible that Cigna is cutting LESS THAN 3% of employees? Were there a lot of areas that didn’t have ANY layoffs? If so, which ones?

It seems like more than 2,000 people were laid off just on 1/29. And more layoffs are coming in Feb. based on the email. I don’t get the math unless they’re outright lying.

Since CC became CEO in May, 2019:
TRU: 23%
S&P: 144%
EFX: 68%

And yet it's other people getting fired. What am I missing?

There was a lot of concern coming out of SKO regarding the direction of the company. Many people, rightfully so, are sharpening up their resumes.

The new CEO started today so put on your seatbelts for a bumpy ride.

unsure, curious if the amazon layoffs are anywhere correlated with their recent relationship changes with UPS?

What are people hearing?

anyone else been put on a PIP recently? I had a meet expectations for end of year stuff but had a suspicious meeting with my sup about goals and a doc of improvements and now think its weird that happened. it wasn't us talking about goals. talked to someone else from another team and they had a similar experience but had a needs improvement end of year review. neither of us got anything from HR but maybe we shouldn't expect an email at this point.

The title says it all.

Private equity will destroy you, just as it destroys everything else

For those asking when layoffs will start, or who is next etc. What exactly are you going to do with this information? Look for another job? You should be doing that already. Even if the info was available to tell you your department, or specifically you were being laid off, what would you do with this information? Save your money? You should be doing that already. Someone help me understand what all this worry is worth. Explain to me how knowing what will happen will change anything. BTW, you'll never know. You might get some tips about a certain department but you'll never know if it's going to be you. Why worry about something you have no control over? What you can control is how you prepare and you should be doing that already. Worrying about what can happen will only make you sick. Be in the moment. If it happens be as prepared as you can. But stop worrying about it.

Thoughts?

Is PnC mod claims or policy team in the layoff list next ?

Why does it feel like OFSE is trying to self sabotage?

Given the significant losses, which are expected to continue to increase, this is a serious concern, and Microsoft should be prepared for a potential CEO exit and make preparations ahead of time.

With Savinays departure, what happens to all the all glitz, glam and promise made during OTW? Databricks partnership is dead on arrival ?

Hope you all have a great weekend. Hopefully you survived this last round. But I expect several/many more this year.

Say some posts on linkedin with Data Scientists at CVS saying their role is eliminated.

What’s going on and is about to happen?

Share price at $110 and falling. What's going on behind the scenes? If it drops below $100 do you think they will punt SH and make layoffs?

Run, hide, we are all doomed!

I wonder how many Amazon employees were encouraged to embrace AI in everything they do, only to have Bezos realize their jobs could be automated?

Be on guard & be prepared mentally. Add skills & Invest in self. We will see many more & very soon.
