Allegiance is a TPA thats been owned by Cigna for some time now and up until last year handled its own hiring/ firing process, benefits for employees and totally independent CEO. We were fully integrated with Cigna’s HR structure 1/1/2026. Our entire hr department was let go during this change. We were promised nothing would change except our benefits and we’d have access to apply to cigna internal positions. This hasnt been the case. Our entire reimbursement account department was just let go. This used to be such a nice small company to work for and now we are being run into the ground

Was talking to a HR consultant yesterday. Was absolutely blown away when she told me every 2nd CV she is seeing is either current or ex PayPal employee. And they are coming from junior, middle and senior level employees. What in the world is happening. It seems except Enrique and his cronies, everyone is jumping the ship.

does anyone know if that site closed? The entire medium business division was axed which was around 50 employees

Leadership lies to protect themselves, blames anyone nearby when things go wrong, and then does layoffs with zero communication. I'm waiting for the day when the job market improves, because I think we'll see a major exodus of the best people.

How often do people like me get cut? I've already seen some newer faces disappear. Is it just bad luck, or are we in more danger?

I wish I had the real numbers, but it feels there's at least two new ones every week.

What’s the latest on the US? We are literally going to drown with all the people already cut.

I've lost count of how many people walked out or were pushed out in the past 12 months.

It's been round after round of layoffs, and I keep asking myself the same question: has any of this actually worked? The numbers might look good on paper, but morale is in the gutter and the best people are walking. The cuts aren't solving anything, they're just making the problem worse.

Tracking participants count #general Slack channel in Oracle One workspace, as the fastest available proxy indication of ongoing layoffs.

Limitations of these stats are covered in detail in comments.
I will post daily in comments on the count change and running current month total.

There is a troll trying to impersonate me and post fake Slack stats; protection measures are covered in the first comment.

The Sheraton Arlington Hotel will cease operations permanently in early 2026. This closure will result in the termination of employment for 110 staff members. The hotel is situated near prominent local attractions in Arlington. The exact reasons for the hotel's closure have not been disclosed. A WARN Act notice was filed by the management company regarding the layoffs.

Anyone hear about layoffs later this year? Someone on my team with connections said there will likely be layoffs in December/January depending on how many people quit with the November RTO mandate. The wish from the top is many people quit instead of return.

Plot twist is the layoffs would not just be in Minnesota, but elsewhere as we continue to wind down presence in various locations.

All rumors, but from a good source.

I work in a flagship mall location
The best way I can describe this vibe in this store is cult like
And if you are not in the cult or have a mind of your own you are shunned

A bunch of people have quit and said once you go work someplace else, it’s very evident that belk is a cult

Even if they layoff 15% of the company 85% will still have jobs. The big problem is that they keep doing it. If the end state is to be under 90K as someone posted earlier than this will happen 3-4 more times by 2028.

Based on Slack numbers we're down like 450 or something actives, beginning with around 26,000-something.

I guess maybe the 20% is over the course of a couple years but IDK

Are departures that we are seeing on LinkedIn considered as #Exxodus 3.0? Or just PIP/PIL employee squeeze.

Columbia Hospitality has laid off 86 employees at its Kenmore lodge. These layoffs are effective October 31. The hotel is closing temporarily for renovations. The property will be redeveloped into a wellness retreat. This action impacts a significant number of staff.

Boulder's proposed 2027 budget includes significant staffing reductions and service modifications due to slowing revenue growth. The city manager's office released a $552.6 million budget with a projected $6.3 million shortfall in the general fund. These financial pressures will lead to 13 employee layoffs and the elimination of 11 vacant positions. Additionally, some city services, like photo radar enforcement and Spruce Pool funding, will be reduced or eliminated. The budget also allocates funds for new initiatives and positions in areas like public safety and climate resilience.

Rumor is there is a hiring freeze. That makes sense with the state of the business, but I’ve seen 20+ people leave and mostly not get replaced. Just in the past 3 months.. In the few instances they have, the backfills old role remains open and the backfill is doing multiple jobs.

The vast majority that I have seen leave are actually good at what they do. Every one that I spoke to also confirmed they were getting paid much more at their new jobs outside the company. They have silently departed.

My boss is always nice and supportive, but I can tell that he is nervous too. He was very professional when I asked him about but said “at Pepsi, you always have to see the focus trends early and be prepared for layoffs at any time.” He’s been here 15+ years and knows his stuff, but I can tell it’s is really wearing on him lately.

What I need to remind myself is to start looking for another job now. Those 20 people were senior levels to me and good. That is a sign of how employees are being valued. The smart people figured this out before me.

I get it, they will not be promoted. We don’t want them over us. But that doesn't mean they have to leave. Just take the paycheck, be quiet, and don’t ask for a career. That’s not too much to ask. Like promotes like, we only promote what looks like us, sorry…

Brookdale Community College is set to implement staff layoffs due to escalating operational expenses. The college's Board of Trustees has officially approved a reduction in force. Rising utility and health benefit costs are cited as primary reasons for this decision. College President David M. Stout confirmed the news. This move comes amid ongoing enrollment declines.

All departments seem to be impacted, rumored 188 employees cut.

Same as last year, blindsided zoom meetings, they read you a script and jamf lock your laptop and ki-l your accounts the moment the meeting ends.

They did layoffs this week. Lots in India. So far I have heard of a few in GHQ

We want to save money, so we hire people at the lowest possible rate. Then we burn out the good workers managing the bad ones. The good people leave, the bad ones stay, and we hire more cheap people to fill the gap. Then we wonder why nothing gets done. I'd rather have a team of ten people who actually show up and care, paid enough to stay, than fifteen people who are just sitting around, waiting for their next paycheck.

But they're also less likely to care about the company, sacrifice for it, or stick around. I wish the leadership would realize this.

We've reached the point where even the laziest people, those who work maybe 2-3 hours a day, are leaving for better opportunities. When that's happening, you know things are truly dire. If even the coasters are jumping ship, what's left for the rest of us? Seriously?

NVIDIA has approximately 42,000 full-time employees and just reported $96.2B in fiscal 2027 quarterly revenue, with projections to do 110B next quarter. They could easily surpass $500B within the next two fiscal years. That's nearly $12M in annual revenue per employee.

Dell Technologies reported an annual revenue of $113.5 billion with an employee headcount of approximately 97,000 full-time workers. That's 1.1M in annual revenue per employee.

NVIDIA has 43% of the total number of employees to Dell yet it is on track to bring in well over 10x the total amount of revenue per employee. Leadership!

Nvidia is hiring, Dell is firing. Nvidia is growing rapidly, Dell is dying.

Who else is seeing 50-100% turnover on certain teams? Expected to continue? Not to mention executives turning over like crazy or hopping to new roles internally.

Europe country. PIP today.

Any grumblings about more cuts or people leaving?

When Clearlake took over they fired a total of 20% of all employees at D&B.

I can't say this strongly enough: if you have any skills, any talent, any ambition...leave this place. It's a dumpster fire that will only drag you down. Get out and don't look back.

Dedicated people with decades of experience are walking away. We're losing our best resource, and nobody in charge seems to care.

150 service reps got fired nationwide on Friday, August 14.

With the ship clearly sinking, why would anyone join Medtronic now? Please, if you joined in the last year or two, can you share why? I'm genuinely curious.

I left almost a year ago, but the anger stayed. Thinking about the years I gave them still makes me want to vomit.

The company will cut you without a hint of hesitation, they've done it before and they'll do it again. Profits come first, people come second. The younger workers aren't wrong to take what they can and move on. They learned what took some of us decades to accept.

Are all remote workers eventually going to be let go regardless on performance?

Starbucks is laying off 224 employees in a final phase of its global restructuring. The affected roles include support positions and workers who declined relocation to Nashville. The company stated this is not a new round of cuts but the conclusion of a previously announced strategy. These changes impact coffeehouse construction and design teams. The move is part of a broader effort to streamline operations and reduce costs.
