I’m in ANI and haven’t heard of any impacts - can anyone confirm if they have heard anything?

Any impacts in ANI or anyone heard anything?

Any updates on freewheel layoffs? which teams/departments have been impacted?

Apple has reportedly impacted over 400 positions since August across various departments. California WARN records indicate 147 permanent separations at three company sites. Changes have affected teams involved with Vision Pro, Siri, hardware engineering, and sales operations. Some reports suggest these adjustments are linked to AI advancements and memory chip market pressures. Vision Pro game development has ceased, with immersive video work continuing at a reduced capacity.

Checking in on my peeps. Please share the RIF impact on your team and what market you’re in.

South - several care coordinators (SICCs) and managers. Unsure of numbers

Anyone in GTS leadership or groups impacted today? This thread is for GTS only

Just let go.

I have heard there were layoffs on the India Dev side but have not heard anything about US layoffs yet. My manager disclosed that she believes it will happen on other teams but no one is sure of the full impact. Has anyone else heard anything?

My manager has unofficially told me that I am impacted. I'm getting prepared for this day next week.

May god bless all of you.

I'm sure there are others, but announcements are still being made throughout the week.

Seems like they had very little impact

That’s a big drop , I am it will hurt.

Legal was hit Monday night. A mix of lawyers and legal professionals. Hard to tell how many, maybe 5% of the staff.

What Compliance groups were impacted? Was ITV impacted yesterday?

This was at the enterprise and business level.

Anyone heard of any impacts occurring yet?

From what I understand, today will see the biggest impact. Can anybody confirm this?

Got the call from my manager. I know of at least 6 other people in my organization (IAM) that are also gone. All but one of us knew it was coming, so it wasn't a surprise to us or the LOB. I am sure there are many others in our LOB too that I didn't know about. I think a lot of orgs are being impacted today.

AI chewing up the opex?

A Starbucks location within Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's Terminal A will be closing its doors. This closure is expected to impact thirteen employees, including baristas, utility workers, and managers. The operator of this concession, HMSHost, filed a WARN notice detailing these impending layoffs. The affected employees will see their positions terminated between late December 2026 and mid-January 2027. This specific closure is a concession decision by the airport, not a broader Starbucks store shutdown.

Will PFAS blow over eventually, or is it a permanent drag on 3M? Thoughts?

Anyone heard of any impacts to GTO

I've already been told that I'm impacted in the Tuesday bloodbath next week. What time should I expect the call that day? Do they usually do it early in the morning?

Anyone hearing how construction is being impacted?

What if every terminated Comcast employee, as a result of this unprecedented round of layoffs, refused to use any of Comcast services once terminated? Part of this has got to be for that bump in stock price that all the soul-less tech companies are doing/have done. How much of an impact to you think it would have? Let's say of the 180k workforce they lost 100k of subscribers in the month of Nov? (Arbitrary numbers folks, no insider info into the actual amount of layoffs.)

What I hate most about this company is the complete lack of trust in the employees to do the right thing in the face of adversity. They won’t be transparent up front about these changes with all impacted groups. It’s got to be like a secret squirrel mission in order to find out who’s impacted and when it’s happening. Have more faith in the people you hired to handle a layoff with grace and compassion. That’s why you hired most of the people because of who they are. I for one am not going to throw a guaranteed severance from a job I’ve been at for 20 plus years to go find another tech job right away. Have some faith and just be honest for once. Everyone is tired of this world and leadership lacking that trust in their people.

Just my two cents.

Is freewheel impacted by the layoffs and restructuring?

1 NYP confirmed impact, anywhere else?

Has anyone heard about the Truist Leadership Institute closing? Kelly King won’t be happy to hear this…sorry to anyone here impacted, if this is true.

Monday will be bad for xrx - brace for impact if you kissed enough butt to stay off the irif list think again ...

The United States is experiencing significant job losses attributed to artificial intelligence, with over 117,000 positions eliminated. This has resulted in an estimated $8.5 billion in lost wages across the nation. California has been the most affected state, reporting more than 27,000 AI-related layoffs. The impact is uneven, with tech-centric regions feeling the brunt of these changes. This trend underscores the transformative effect of AI on the current job market.
