Your time has come if you get an unexpected early morning manager’s meeting on Nov 13th
This has been the well rehearsed blueprint.
Mostly Top Performers
On my team they let go the top 3 sales performers with very high commissions. The guy who sold the largest deal in I M Cloud history was let go a month later. Shameful.
What's the package like now?
So if you are let go what's the package like at Conoco these days? I left many years back and moved to family business. So just curious if it's better than what it used to be.
Good luck !
Customer Service in India
The Indian accent is undoubtedly the most annoying accent in the world, Verizon needs to ax the entire cs reps based in India and move it elsewhere I know it's pennies on the dollar but imagine Verizon customers hearing that accent when they are already pi---d off
November 14th is the day?
Hearing from multiple sources that a layoff is planned for November 14th?
Dallas, Tx | Cloud Platform Team RA’d
In Dallas, Texas IBM laid off the entire Cloud Platform Team (i.e., developers, software engineers, etc.), including the manager.
LAID OFF BUT H1B ALLOW TO STAY
If you are laid off and H1B in your team is not laid off- do you have a good court case
Global Brand Mass Layoff
No one is giving specifics, but a colleague mentioned a number of senior leaders and managers were let go from the Alpharetta office. Can anyone confirm?
What are you all thinking about this?
If really talented CEO should not choose layoff to show money
He needs to guide the employees how to increase stacks value and how to increase customers to come VZ network
Layoff and show money as company growth any one can do for that we dont need talented people normal people can do this

Pension Rollover after being laid off
Anyone completed their pension rollover after being axed. I am wondering how long it takes to hit your IRA account after getting your notice that it is being rolled over?
Cut travel budget not employees
So long as we keep sending managers on trips to oversee the offshore teams things ain’t gonnna change.
Why the heck are we paying people to give pep talks in India? This only means a plane load of people are taking their spouses on paid vacations.
How sad people are getting laid off while others get free vacations.
Layoff in Walmart EBS today
Heard a bunch of layoffs going on today. Is it true? What’s the management criteria!
"According to posts on The Layoff, some individuals have allegedly been offered “3 months [of] severance and other benefits”"

Do we have enough 60+ people
Do we have enough 60+ people in Oxy that will be enough not to trigger an involuntary layoffs? I don’t know what percentage of people they are looking at reducing if it will come down to letting more people go in the coming months. What’s your take on this?
Rumor that band 5 and up is this week?
I’m hearing rumors that band 5 and above is getting notices this week or accepting a special package. Can any Sr Directors or above confirm this?
Band 6 and below will be the 11/20 group. Im hearing those names are being compiled by band 5 and above now, but I’d like to hear confirmation from the band 5s?
Someone somewhere must have credible information by now. Please let us know!
Root?
I've said it before if they let me go I'll see to it they never win root again or any other awards they may use instead.
I think my time here is up
My workload’s dropped off a cliff over the last few months, and while I can’t say for certain, it really feels like my manager’s been avoiding me. I’m almost sure my name’s on the list. Weirdly enough, that realization’s made things easier to handle. Now that I know what’s probably coming, I feel calmer and I’ve already started looking for my next move.
Tone deaf 10 year celebrations
What’s the point of these celebrations when the very people that made this happen are let go? No meaningful strategy when it comes to these layoffs. Those at the top are coasting while those who do the actual work are treated like cr-p. Trust, confidence and motivation to drive is lost and they really expect us to be excited about these “celebrations”?
Many People Have Said That They "Leave" IBM in Recent Days (Ahead of Mass Layoffs)
http://techrights.org/n/2025/11/04/Many_People_Have_Said_That_They_Leave_IBM_in_Recent_Days_Ahead_.shtml
How did they decide who to let go?
Because it 100% was not performance. We lost two teammates who were among the best, and we have a few who could/should have been laid off instead and are still here. It really su-ks knowing that hard work will not protect you in situations like this. What's even the point then?
IBM's CEO Already Has the Excuse for the Latest Wave of Mass Layoffs

Unfair Safety Nets at the Top
Do the VPs and directors get those special packages in their contracts, so they don’t have to worry at all after the merger while everyone else feels uncertain?
Go to other layoff sites: the maga racism prevalent at USAA
Seriously. Go to another bank. Find the strength of racism that exists no where else only at our finest USAA. even more odd, most employees are actually supportive and help one another at other banks. We have a deep rot here. its why we only attract the most d-list leaders.
Transunion mid november layoffs, again.
long gone is the morally, ethically right culture of Transunion. Say hello to layoffs for thanksgiving.
Let's talk LayOff and Stop the RTO Bullsh1t
When is the next layoff and which org?
California layoff healthcare coverage?
Palo Alto employee here. Will get notified on Dec and last day 60 days later. Question: What kind of continuing healthcare coverage does Broadcom offer during the severance period? Continuing the existing plan for a period of time?
And I assume after that, the option to purchase Cobra coverage?
What Is The Latest Layoff Speculation?

How Many Q Managers Are Now Realizing They Will Never Be Managers Again
Indeed, Zip Recruiter, LinkedIn, Monster! Keep applying the reality will hit soon. No transferable skills. No keeping current. Just gliding along. Thinking it would last forever. Enjoy those checks while they come in. The merger may be in 2027, but they arent going to merge the whole wagon and then start evaluating cuts. Skyworks is not paying out severance packages. Clear that noise from any future considerations. And if you live in one of those places with no semiconductor companies around, well I guess there is always coding like Joe said! Karma for every poor soul that got su-kered into working for the failed merger of RFMD and Triquint and lost their positions due to poor business management!
job eliminated today
good riddance
VSPs
Just came through… thoughts/details?
December Layoffs
With rumors of potential layoffs in December, what areas of the company do you think they’ll target or if there will be layoffs in general?
As long as there's severance, I'm good
I can handle being laid off. What would really break me is being PIPed and then fired, which is exactly how my old company got rid of people to save money. That’s the reason I left. After having that kind of threat hanging over me for years, a layoff almost feels like mercy.
Philips Respironics to slash nearly 200 jobs from Pittsburgh area facilities
The company, which moved part of its operations to Thailand last year, told the state Department of Labor and Industry last week that it plans to lay off about 196 workers from its centers in Murrysville, Mount Pleasant and New Kensington.

I finally gave my two weeks
My stomach was doing backflips the whole time, even though I know walking away is the right call. Sometimes quitting feels even harder than staying in a miserable job, but I can already feel the weight lifting. Goodbye PepsiCo, I truly wish I’d never known you.
Is it too late in the year for more layoffs?
I'm not sure how it works here, but my old company usually had two major layoffs per year, and it'd all be done by November. Can somebody please tell me how it works here? I've been here for six months, so I'm still trying to figure stuff out. Thanks in advance.
