#layoff

I hear people say it's not based on performance, and if that's true, what are the deciding factors?

This round will be Thursday 10/15. Go to HR Central, search Job Elimination, and click the Manager Guide for Job Eliminations (this may be limited for those without managerial roles). Within that article, it'll have a slide deck that outlines all of the events for this week including the 10/15 notification date. Good luck all!

I doubt we'll be notified on a Sunday, so some of the currently mentioned dates seem like pure speculation. Has there been any reliable info to indicate when the next round will hit?

Ignoring it since it's pointless and most likely not anonymous. Focusing on getting through the day and getting another job.

Martin short and Steve Martin holding a yellow thong? Has this company lost its mind over a new credit card?

Manager is fed up with how they have been treated, unable truly make decisions on ratings and merit, believes they have a target on them. They have an official "talking point" doc that came down from HR with how to respond to employees questions around the changes that happened and those coming down the line. They "accidentally" printed it and forgot it. There are Q and A items around how to respond to WFR questions so yes, there are upcoming WFRs.

I was let go during the November RIF of 2025. Found a new job after. My stress is non existent and I finally remember what a job is supposed to be. No more emergency dumpster fire from the moment I wake up till I go to sleep. I now work regular hours at an easy to maintain pace. Verizon was literally ki-ling me. There is a world out here that truly appreciates you.

Yes skills and experience on point, rejected even so. Bet they want a ITC instead. How Nike has fallen

Will there be more next week?

hearing rumors-- are they true?

NALI is at it again, sending out documents to move decliners that the company, “accepts your RESIGNATION”. Push back on this. The language matters, you’re not resigning, you’re being layed-off, terminated, etc for your inability to accommodate a significant change in location. Resignation vs termination matters to your ability to claim unemployment and eligibility for severance.

Stelco has commenced issuing layoff notices to its employees, with the first job cuts scheduled to take effect this Sunday. Approximately 90 workers are expected to receive notices this week, impacting around 330 individuals at the Hamilton plant. Additional reductions are anticipated at the Lake Erie Works in Nanticoke, affecting co-op and pickling operation staff.

I've been working here at Walgreens for 4.5 years, never got a promotion so wasn't surprised that I got let go. How do I feel? I felt numb by it knowing the culture as i process the news. Layoffs have happened yearly since I joined.
Well moving on now.

Farewell

Hearing an irif today. Please post if you know which depts.

End of an era…

I love how he didn't even get to write his own notice, and they made it clear he's out before the year ends. I can't wait to see more of our useless c-suite get canned.

Why do they RIF great people leaders and move us under someone who is clearly in over their head?

Why is everyone being so secretive about this?

My boss and two other colleagues have been laid off, and apparently everyone knows. Yet nobody has addressed it directly, and the whole thing seems to be getting swept under the rug.

We’re not asking because we’re looking for gossip. This is going to have a direct impact on our team and our workload. The work still has to go somewhere, and at some point someone needs to communicate what the plan is.

The problem is, nobody wants to be the one to ask and potentially end up absorbing all the extra work without any additional compensation. We shouldn’t have to find out through the grapevine or wait until the workload lands on our desks before anyone acknowledges what’s happening.

Does anyone know if Leo Brito has left? If anyone could confirm or deny this it would be great. Thanks in advance.

Hertz’s story has been more restructure and squeeze efficiency out of the organisation than slash thousands of jobs. It’s layoffs season hopefully we remain intact. Thoughts?

Maybe our board should do the needful and replace the CEO with our stock in free fall

Sierra Lobo will lay off 242 employees in New Mexico. These job cuts are a direct result of a concluded five-year NASA contract. The White Sands Test Facility is affected by this change.

Seriously - They come out with a retirement offer for craft and then they deny people with close to four decades seniority from taking it? And if you're management you have to worry that regardless of the job you're doing, you might still get canned in order to bring the stock price up a few bucks? The decision makers up above us really have a cruel streak in them.

Prudential Insurance Company of America has filed four Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) notices indicating a total of 321 job cuts so far in 2026. https://njbiz.com/prudential-warn-notice-125-nj-job-cuts/

I'm wondering if anyone has any news about layoffs at any of the other offices?

I took maternity leave and had been back for 6 months and was laid off this time. Not sure if its a coincidence or not but I haven't seen anyone else post about being laid off yet but appearntly it was several.
