Anyone check employee counts by country recently?
Use employee look-up like normally would, doesn't matter who
When results open select Detailed search. For Country use USA, then IND, then I think it was PHL
Will give you count for each country code.
I am trying to find my numbers from 2019.
It's starting again this week
7K global. So it's starting again.
EMEA Layoffs
Any hint on when this latest layoff round would hit EMEA? Besides ANS who i think got hit globally, would be good to know what's happening with the VCF division.

Layoffs outside North America
Hi everyone,
The mainstream media websites are mentioning global layoffs at IBM however from what I have seen so far it has only been US and Canada.
Does anyone know if a next round is expected within this quarter for the rest of the Geos and Markets?
Thanks
Global Reduction in Force
MA layoffs incoming
APLA and CS
Does anyone have any more information on this?
The last I heard was the following;
APLA will transition to APAC, Latin America will join North America and CS will transition to a new role called VP, Global Geo Ops, which will be all about tying together the geos for consistency with a focus on brand and product. They will report directly to AM.
CHEERS
More layoffs in works.
This will be a global impact, the US will be hit the most. just my opinion based on the vibe.
List of people impacted
There's a list of US people impacted, does anyone know of a list for global employees? #yelling says there are people in TII who were laid off so I was hoping there'd be a list of global employees impacted. Or does anyone know names of specific TII people impacted?
What else can they take from us?
Imagine those going end up losing 12 EDOs and floaters to align with EM's global regions who don't have the same. Likewise for the DB plan.

International layoffs
Is there any insight as to whether upcoming rumoured 10/28 layoffs include international / phase 2 employees or is more US heavy?
Iraq - Good luck
Amazing that we are back in Iraq after two years trying to get out. And now the question of who will actually work Iraq after getting rid of the Aussies, Canadians, Malaysians and Brits. Why would we do this to our global team when we are trying to grow new developments

Total 2,035 headcount reduction
5 countries headcount got the most impacted
USA 763
China 328
India 294
Brazil 59
Malaysia 43
Total layoffs yesterday at FIS
Does anyone know the tentative global headcount affected by the layoffs at FIS?
Don't be too happy about this
I know some are gloating about the India layoffs, but you really shouldn’t be. Just because they’re letting people go there doesn’t mean they’ll be hiring here. In fact, it makes it clear that things could be even worse here since they’re laying off people who cost a fraction of what we do. This is not a situation to celebrate.
IT employees’ union claims 30,000 job cuts, plans global action
The Union of IT & ITES Employees (UNITE) protested against TCS, alleging potential job cuts affecting 30,000 employees, a claim TCS denies, stating the reduction is around 2% of its global workforce. Supported by CITU, UNITE demands government intervention and warns of a larger layoff scale, while TCS emphasizes restructuring for future readiness with severance packages.

Most of Intel manufacturing sites are Not in US, but in other countries (China, Ireland, Israel, Malasia, Vietnam, etc). Is Intel a US company?
Most of Intel's fabs, assembly and packaging sites are in other countries, not in US at all. Intel only has 60% fabs in US, and 99% assemble and packaging are in other countries (China, Malaysia, Penang, etc).
Does Intel count as a US manufacturing company? Its manufacturing in non-US countries is higher than other companies.
Global Town Hall 8/19
Does anyone have any insight? Management has sent numerous emails encouraging the team to attend. Management has never cared in the past about Town Halls!
Cuts worldwide in Utilities, Industries and Construction
Just confirmed that this time RIF spreads to Ukraine, Romania, India, Mexico development centers and remote workers. Utilities haven’t had layoffs in engineering for past 10 years. I heard second wave is possible.
