#cuts

I'm now thoroughly confused. Is today the main layoff day or not?

Evicore Project Manager axed today.

I heard more layoffs in Feb. anyone else?

2,000 (3%) RIF by end of February.

Driven by AI and automation (no mention of HIH which is laughable).

Notifications will go out for the next couple of weeks.

It’s safe to say the cuts won’t end there.

Q1 and Q2

I’m just frustrated that they keep cutting and cutting roles, to stack responsibility on top of someone else is work load…then decide make you fight for a open role in a “hunger games” like ritual where you go against your colleagues. This whole thing takes a month long mind you. Then if you’re lucky to be the one they picked, poof, restructuring 6 months down the road. Su-ks

XOC, Construction and Headend are on the cutting block this time being told immediately to go home and they will be paid till March and start applying. I know CMO and supervisors and below are affected. This one so far seems to be a lot more quiet than the removal of divisions.

lululemon let go of 100 part-time workers who helped answer customer questions by phone, email, and chat.

These workers helped people every day, but the company decided it wants to use only full-time workers for this job instead.

Lululemon says this change will help them do a better job helping customers and make the business run more smoothly.

This is happening while the company is also looking for a new boss and dealing with some disagreements with its founder.

no store closures, just changes to how customer help is done.

Toledo Public Schools has begun laying off employees as part of a sweeping cost-cutting plan aimed at addressing a projected budget deficit, with district leaders warning that more job eliminations are likely over the next two years.

Tuesday, district officials said 32 people were notified they no longer have jobs, including central office staff and 20 nurses and social workers.

AVP confirmed that there were cuts across Enterprise technology, data management, and Gov today. Wouldn’t share numbers.

Heard of a group under CSBB that got let go this morning. Any info on if more are coming?

Just found out the hard way that they cut a lot of people and made others but not all go back to the office

The cuts will come from the CFO structure. GL takes the reigns in March. It gives them a perfect excuse to "clear house" because there is a new coach for the team. Just in time for May investor day. He will "see all the inefficiencies that the old CFO couldn't" and wants to make an impact so I will put my $5 on this bet right now.

Truist is planning on 22k plus. Just an FYI

It’s finally happening, the first salvo of the monthly layoffs at Amazon.

I just got a communication (I was laid off June) that I will be receiving my bonus at a pro rated rate hence missing last 5 months Dam!!!

Time to split

When is the next big layoff? They need to match Vrz employees numbers cause T always follow them. I’m expecting like 50% cut.

Any truth behind a previous post that claim that layoffs will commence the December 19,2025 - January 30,2026? We are entering the final 3 days of this supposed truth about when layoffs are happening and nothing major has happened. With the stock getting ready to dip below $40 is it possible layoffs could happen sometime soon?

"Some of you might ask if this is the beginning of a new rhythm – where we announce broad reductions every few months." Yes! Like all tech companies! Riffing, rhythm, what else? Hip hop? Agents?

So we here in the colonies have lost pretty much our entire schools publishing and content team. The rationale is that global content can be mediated to local curriculum requirements. This is patently untrue. The ANZ market for secondary school material is seriously insular, and anything that is not created by local writers will be looked on as second rate nonsense. They are moving us to the Pearson model, which as anyone who knows our market will attest is doomed to failure.
The best bit of this though is the fact that we only found out about this via a: people who had already been dumped but still had relationships with those canned and b: the actual email that went out was addressed only to the team who were mostly already being canned. There has been no messaging to the rest of the ANZ team despite us working closely with most of those involved over many years.
Gold standard in intercompany comms.

Everyone is being told they have to make do with less, and the next 12-18 months are going to be very challenging, rough, bumpy, tenuous. Masked words to likely mean layoffs, possible merit and/or AIP freezes or worse. Does anyone else find it interesting that the new interim CEO and these events all line up? Isn’t he a finance guy? Are we experiencing exactly what they hired him to do?

January or February? 5%? 10%? 15%?

Copilot guesstimates 2000-5000 cuts in 2026 just within Optum health. 572 confirmed in Jan. Out of 240000 employees could be worse.

Amazon announced its plan to trim management layers to address bureaucracy. It makes you wonder when will we take a similar look, so the people delivering the real work here, aren’t always the first on the chopping block. Something about the current approach just doesn’t add up

Just so people are aware, TI just substantially cut profit sharing for 2026 onward. We all basically got a large pay cut.

Is that some kind of a joke? More cuts?

It nice to feel better than the colleagues because the boss like you and pays you more. But when the eggheads at central office start running spreadsheets and who can get cut to save money, you stick out like a sore thumb and an easy choice to cull first.

Minneapolis-based Hennepin Healthcare is making service line changes that will result in the elimination of about 100 positions, citing a broader effort to stabilize its finances and protect core clinical services.

The health system said Jan. 26 it will close or integrate several stand-alone clinics and services, including chiropractic and acupuncture, with patients referred to external providers.

They lost any maneuvering room to show results besides cuts a long time ago. At this stage, we're in a managed decline, an effort to maximize profits for the top and shareholders for as long as possible.

If your director cancelled morning meetings today your org is in the receiving end of the layoffs.

Anything new on rumors there will be cuts next month?

Anybody else shocked it's nearly the end of January and we're yet to see any layoffs this year? I know something might be coming soon, but still. I got so used to constant layoffs that this reprieve seems like a miracle in itself.

Amazon has announced a new round of layoffs as part of its plan to eliminate 30,000 corporate jobs. The latest cuts will remove 14,000 corporate positions across Amazon Web Services (AWS), retail, Prime Video and human resources.

We're losing jobs in one place, but they're adding plenty new jobs in other places. Wouldn't a simple hiring freeze accomplish the same cost savings without destroying morale and losing experienced people?

Are there any latest rumors about layoffs?

Stan McLaren, CEO of Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program, resigned in mid-December. His departure followed internal dissent over staff layoffs and mission concerns. The nonprofit laid off 25 people and closed a 20-bed medical respite facility. These actions were taken as the organization faces significant Medicaid funding cuts. Dr. Denise De Las Nueces, the chief medical officer, is now serving as interim CEO.

Boston, Massachusetts

Heard from a Band 5+ that Sales and Implementation U3000 is going to get hit this week. Any truth to this?

Another round of cuts incoming?
