H1B
Breaking news it will cost NetApp 100,000 dollars per H1B sponsor now. Kurian will not be happy
Massive self-layoff incoming

Our contracting firms use H1b to save 25%. This new fee destroys Nike’s contracting model. Leadership will probably try offshoring more but those individuals juggle 3 jobs concurrently and don’t do any real work.
Things have been falling apart the last few years and it’s only going to get worse. This is going to be such a dumpster fire.
H1B visa fee is now 100k each
How will the company survive?
H1B visas could cost 100K per year for corporations!

This could be great for the USA
oct 30 2025
maybe oct 30 2025 will outline the bigger plan going forward..
Predict the next 8 months
Tell me what you think will happen from now until April.
My predictions:
Cable stripped to bare bones. CBS completely restructured.
Most fully remote employees cut in November (I’m fully remote) so they don’t have to relocate anyone. International fully destroyed.
Mass exodus due to RTO.
Engineering and streaming jobs all posted in LA, NY, SF with below median compensation.
DE outsourcing everything he possibly can to Oracle.
DE buying more IP with his dad’s money.
And I say all this as a person who absolutely loves our company. I hate what this has become. I hate to be a glass half empty person. And I’m not trying to hate on any department or division of Paramount. I’m just being completely realistic about what is going to happen here.
Ok, let’s hear it.
plan for the future....forget about the past
Yes we are going to have fun in the future. we don't need to pay for a phone line. It is a car payment. We will cut it and will just get a land line. The past was the portable phone. The future is no more phone to hold. We can't afford it....and more importantly we don't need it. The that new stuff to do will come besides swiping some supid plastic device into empty space. love the next thing coming
phone plans going down hard in value
We are going to see something crazy really soon. People will cut lines as they lose revenue and get laidyed off. The is going to mean one thing an one thing alone. PHONE PLANES MUST GO DOWN.....PHONE PLANES MUST GO DOWN. We can't afford india anymore. the poeople in the USA won't pay. they will cut costs. they are going to do the best and most wise thing. cut costs. First is the car...2nd is the phone. lovely world coming
Humana can't afford the ERP payouts
If you are waiting for your exit date, you will be left waiting. Humana is stalling for time while they try to liquidate the funds to pay out the ERPs. If they file for bankruptcy, you get nothing. If they sell or merge, you get nothing. Anyone they can term, you get nothing.
Good luck getting out of this h*llhole until you are no longer useful to their benefit. It's one lie upon the previous lie with Humana.
Big news!
Someone posted a few months ago about big news towards the end of the year. Has anyone heard anything on what it might be?
Dumpster fire of a company.
Sad that this once great company has gone down the tubes in the last five years. Yes, layoffs are a coming because of inept leaders.
What changes to expect in 2026?
Does anyone know what we should expect for 2026 under Skydance as far as benefits, RTO, Vacation etc?
Laid off after 11 years - and I feel relieved
The anxiety had been building to a peak by the time I got notified. And at that moment, I realized I didn’t actually want to work here anymore anyway. Not a coping mechanism, just a sudden, clear realization that not only had I stopped caring about my job here, but there’s really no meaningful future for most of us at Oracle. So, good riddance.
Future of Oracle
It looks that only numbers matters. It's now a CFO driven company.
I've been told that no-one wants to join Oracle now, as can be fired in 1month, 1year. Or low paid jobs for intern/early guys.
Even Gartner magic quadrant won't support, people hate this culture, and are not productive at all.
Future jobs that will replace outsourced oil and gas corporate jobs
What future jobs are likely to replace the corporate jobs and salaries that are being outsourced in oil and gas?
What departments will be affected the most?
13-15% will be laid off by November. What parts of Paramount will be cut the most? Curious as to what others are predicting. Best luck to all of you - some of the nicest and most talented people I've ever worked with.
Fossil’s sinking ship strategy: slap Nick Jonas on a watch and pray someone notices
Nothing says ‘financial recovery plan’ quite like betting the company’s future on a boy-band side quest. At this rate, the only thing timeless about Fossil will be the bankruptcy papers.
AI should replace Senior Directors, VPs etc.
reading previous post how AI will lead to next round layoffs I have a proposal, hear me out.
let's be clear most of leadership all the way to VPs are basically walking chatbots, you don't even need "thinking" AI models to replace them, some older ones will do the job. Then add agents workflows to generate endless stupid powerpoints and initiatives, randomize meeting creation and that's it. At least that kind of leadership will do a better job - faster, more accessible, zero price, less d-mb noise, jokes and posts. Their shallowness and lack of any deep knowledge is literally any area is insane.
Worthless anyway, at least we save some money, win win!?
