30% of the whole company. Will be getting laid off.

Listen there is not much to worry about when it comes to layoffs if you’re doing your job, and doing it well!
If you’re a bottom then yeah you’re probably on the chopping block of your fan has to do layoffs.

Not all but the majority bottoms are those who we all have to pick the slack up for anyways. Not saying there isn’t the exception to the rule here and there but it’s far and few between. Most employees in the bottom are there for a reason. For example the infamous IE we’ve seen in this thread who does nothing but TikTok’s all night, does what we need last minute causing pile ups … if you’re like this you can expect to be cut if they need to pinch numbers. Otherwise you guys are good

as far as I know over 30 people laid off, including me.

Hello Bello has announced significant layoffs affecting nearly 70 employees. The company filed a WARN notice with the Texas Workforce Commission on September 28th. These job reductions are scheduled to take effect in late November. This action follows the company's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in October 2023. Hildred Capital Management now owns the company.

The studio behind the popular VR game Walkabout Mini Golf has announced another round of significant layoffs. Approximately 35% of the staff will be let go due to ongoing challenges in the games industry, particularly within the VR sector. This follows a similar downsizing event that occurred in January of the same year. The company cited a lack of new player acquisition in VR as a key factor in the unsustainable operating scale. Despite these cuts, Mighty Coconut plans to continue releasing downloadable content for its existing titles and is developing new projects.

And the ones that are still here are busy looking for a way out. This place is done.

November is going to be huge for layoffs just in time for the hollidays

Does Dell usually lay people off ahead of the holidays?

They just decimated their teaching staff, laying off dozens of full time professors in each department. I was told it has something to do with bad investments in Mexico. This is a bad sign. I worked there for 12 years and I was one of many let go this month.

I'm saying this as somebody who was part of another similarly major acquisition. We've had our first round within a month of things being made official, but that was not the biggest one. Those were mostly directly redundant positions. A few months later, there was a monster of a round, with several smaller rounds following every few months. One of those got me. That's why I'm not looking forward to the next year, at least.

Why in the world do we even need layoffs with attrition being as high as it is?

Was anyone else listening in on the Leadership Development call on Tuesday? Things were going as expected, until the final comments when the male leader suggested that the way to increase our revenue per employee is to encourage people to leave voluntarily. Did anyone else catch that? Seemed like they said the quiet part out loud

We're averaging an HRBP leaving almost every 2 months since the reorg in wave 2. Are we going to do away with this pool model? It's confusing and not working.

Is there any reliable statistic on how many employees choose PIL versus a PIP, how many eligible employees actually retire, what percentage of PIPs HR allows to pass, and how many employees leave the company even after "passing" a PIP?

I am hearing about many people let go.. How deep were the cuts?

Every single one brings layoffs. Somehow roles which have nothing to do with it are always classified as redundant (I've seen it happen again and again) and people are kicked out. Every single time it's used as an excuse to get rid of good, hardworking people.

I’ve noticed this trend: older, more tenured employees aren’t leaving on their own however young people seem to get out of here fast. Very few make it to 2 years. I realize the younger generations are prone to job hopping so some of this is expected but a lot of it is based on their desire to get away from the toxic environment. So why do tenured employees stay? Too close to retirement? Waiting for severance? Afraid of looking for a job elsewhere?

Will be a challenge to bring in all those projects and volumes with everyone resigning and being fired.

Truist Financial Corporation is selling its near-prime auto loan portfolio for $5.5 billion. This strategic shift involves exiting the auto loan business. As a result, its subsidiary Regional Acceptance Corporation is closing an Arlington office. Over 200 full-time employees will be laid off from this location. The affected workers will begin losing their jobs in late November.

Getting rid of longtime employees might save money immediately, but there's a lot that doesn't show up on a balance sheet. Years of knowing how things actually work can't always be handed over to someone new. Once too many of such people are shown the door, Oracle may discover just how much they were carrying. Saving money today doesn't necessarily mean saving money later.

I've made it through at least six layoffs now, and all of them left me scratching my head. All the rounds didn't seem to follow any obvious pattern. There were people with years of experience who disappeared, while others I expected to be vulnerable stayed. But then again, some of the newbies were also gone. Different pays, different statuses, different ratings... No common ground whatsoever.

Stone Brewing is undergoing significant changes following its recent acquisition by Firestone Walker. While the new ownership is investing in and expanding some operations, the former production facility and restaurant in Escondido are slated for closure. This closure will result in the layoff of approximately 220 employees by January. These job cuts are a consequence of Sapporo, the previous owner, shutting down the Escondido site after failing to find a buyer. In contrast, Stone Brewing's Liberty Station location will receive upgrades and continue brewing operations.

Two major Vermont healthcare providers are implementing substantial layoffs due to financial pressures. Dartmouth Health is terminating 124 employees and canceling 303 open positions. The University of Vermont Health network is laying off 199 staff members and closing two patient care units. These cuts are intended to address increasing operational costs and shrinking patient revenue. Both organizations are facing nationwide financial challenges within the healthcare industry.

You can replace us when we quit but our replacements will never have the knowledge of why decisions were made 5,10, 20 years ago. You will have to repeat mistakes and relearn what we already know. The cost of losing what we know will be immense. Good luck surviving the Exxodus. It has only just begun.

A lot of prior ones were heavily weighted to early career employees with less than 10 years.

It seems like now a lot of mid career employees with 10-25 years are seeing opportunities shrink and are voting with their feet. Lots of very highly regarded employees and high performers don't see a future with EM. Most who leave do extremely well elsewhere.

Bumped from @bz+1m197mkb2.

I've been thinking about how the layof pool actually gets selected...my guess is it goes something like this, roughly in this order. Would you agree? Am I off on the sequence or missing a category? Reply with what you've actually seen so we can get closer to understanding the process...

• HR offenders/issues AKA "problems"
• Low performers
• Duplicate/redundant positions
• Remote employees
• High-cost employees
• Teams/functions being consolidated
• Employees on canceled/deprioritized projects
• Overlapping management positions
• Low direct report count management
• Recent hires in areas that over-hired
• Random employees to meet the headcount quota

Ziff Davis, the parent company of IGN, has implemented layoffs across multiple departments of the video game website. This action comes just two months before the highly anticipated release of Grand Theft Auto VI. Prominent figures like presenters Seth Macy and Brian Altano, along with tech writer Bo Moore, were among those affected. The total number of employees laid off remains undisclosed. This is not the first instance of Ziff Davis conducting staff reductions at IGN.

A lot of experienced employees were pushed out, and now the company is relying on people who don't know the customers or the business nearly as well. How long is it going to take them to realize that saving money on payroll always results in the quality of the work suffering?

People keep leaving with knowledge that took them years to build. A new hire can learn the basics, but they can't suddenly know all the little things an experienced employee picked up over decades. Management seems to think everything can be documented and handed over. I'd like to be a fly on that wall when they realize how untrue that is.

Did you know that 250 HCSC employees retired last year? Did you know that the number is 300 and counting this year? HR er um the "People" division knows. But they're talking about it as a trend, not another indication that the culture is in the toilet. If these were just "front line" employees but executives are heading for the exits because they can't deal with the craziness anymore.

Did you also know that beginning in January, employees in Richardson and Chicago are going to have to swipe their badges to leave the building at the end of the day? This is not a rumor. This is going to happen. It's been in the works. They wanted to do this earlier this year but came to their senses when they realized that along with making 75% of the workforce remote that would be too much.

Today is the first day of the Pulse survey. You're kidding yourself if you think it's anonymous. Even HR stopped telling that lie. They're very sensitive to negative comments and identify who says what. But you probably knew that. If not, you do now. Comment at your own risk.

One more did you know. HR is getting ready for another one of their "operations" (layoffs) in 2027. This won't be because the company isn't making money. It's going to be positioned as "eliminating redundancies." This is not a rumor either. This is going to happen.

Who would leave without a second thought if they were able to land an offer, even if the pay was slightly lower?

I think at least half of employees would be gone by now. The lack of jobs is the only thing that's keeping so many of us here.

So it seems Schwab has an issue with new hires and CS&S where other firms are coming in and offering $10-$20,000 signing bonus and scooping these individuals up right after they finish their training, and it’s causing a massive exodus.

No ideas as I saw people who delivered few things are let go?

There are almost no upstream technical employees left. All being replaced by downstream. If you are heritage upstream technical your days are numbered. They are coming for you.

Ruiz Foods has announced another round of layoffs affecting 176 employees at its Dinuba, California facility. This marks the second such reduction in California since the company relocated its headquarters to Texas two years ago. The company cited a need to align production capacity with anticipated customer demand as the reason for the decision. Despite these layoffs, the Dinuba plant will remain operational and is considered a critical part of Ruiz Foods' manufacturing network. This follows a previous layoff of 215 employees at a Tulare facility.
