No word yet on whether accepted or not for EISP, but we're supposed to be off payroll by end of week and many people will have days left that must be used or lost by then.

30% of the whole company. Will be getting laid off.

If true, who is the deep throat? I encourage everyone who hears a rumor to contact the speak up line and report who said what, when and where.

Only HR and VP+ are likely under the tent. If roles were reversed there would be no mercy cast on you.

I still haven’t received my box to return equipment so I was a little surprised today to see my severance payment in my bank account. Hope this happened for everyone else.

They usually fire people for performance in Oct , anyone know the date ?

They upped my COBRA slightly but won't move on anything else. For people who got more severance, did they move before your first deadline or only after first deadline? Did you go back and forth or just sit silent?

I really want out with a package.

I never planned to retire early but after seeing how others are treated I am going out on a high note rather than waiting to be put in a PIP and forced out. Goodbye everyone!

PS: rising interest rates also helped me decide to leave.

I dont remember if they avoided it in the last few years. I actually recall one in Novemeber specifically. Telling people they are let go and still having them do "open enrollment" was a nice touch.

Nearly 1,400 workers were laid off at Navistar's Springfield truck plant. This significant reduction represents a substantial portion of job growth in the wider Dayton area. While national job numbers appear stable, these regional losses highlight a growing unevenness in the labor market. The cuts are not indicative of a widespread manufacturing downturn. They demonstrate how large individual plant layoffs can disproportionately affect local economies.

There has been a rumour about layoff for around 4000 employees by next year's start. I overheard it from discussions in the office. Looks like some employees might be in loop or getting their info from somewhere

Could it be true or a rumour?

Oracle Layoff -- Stop being bitter and angry after 20, 30+ years of loyal service and getting laid off! You made a good living and a decent salary and RSUs. No doubt, Oracle has a very brilliant and talented workforce.

I'm tired of hiring the sad stories here and LinkedIn. You should have moved on and joined a start-up, Microsoft, AWS, Google, and many other companies. Stop blaming Oracle. Take charge of your career and your destiny. Move on.

Is there a way to know how many are still left to go?

And that's especially true for Exxon. Be smart and start looking for a way out. This place will chew you up and sp-t you out without a second thought.

Does anybody have any details?

EDD conducted a phone interview with me because I listed my departure due to "Layoff". EDD told me that Centene listed it as something different. I'm hoping I get approved. Anyone have a similar experience?

Why has it been so quiet??? Any updates on Medicare layoff and voluntary severance?

I would never have believed I would say this 10 years ago, but I miss the days when executives would just come out and say the word layoff. All this bullsh-t about transformation or transforming the way we do business is ridiculous. We all know at the end of a transformation there will be less people in the team.

While customer-facing roles will largely remain unaffected, the cuts span across all teams and global locations. Mews aims to maintain its ambitious goal of becoming the dominant operating system for the hospitality sector.

Despite overall job growth, white-collar industries like finance and professional services are experiencing significant job cuts. These layoffs are occurring as economic data presents a mixed picture, with some sectors expanding while others contract. Factors such as higher interest rates and the adoption of AI are contributing to these reductions. The labor market appears healthy on the surface, but many displaced workers are finding it challenging to secure similar roles. This trend suggests a shifting job landscape for many professionals.

So much pageantry. So much suspense. All for a game of thrones style underwhelming finale.

Four or five months heads up that "we'll be making adjustments throughout fy27 and we don't know who will be impacted" isn't compassion or clarity. Its chemotherapy for terminal cancer.

Just take me out back on a friday and give me the ol' yeller treatment. Or to HR and give me a box to put my stuff in. We dont need to do this elaborate charade.

as far as I know over 30 people laid off, including me.

My coworker has given the same standup update for four weeks: "No updates" Either he's on the layoff list or he's about to be promoted to Principal.
HR is flipping a coin.

Historically speaking, we’re getting close to our annual layoff time. Anyone know what Align typically offers as severance?

Somebody mentioned this in another thread, what does that mean exactly? Is it unannounced layoffs? Or something else?
