#layoff

They can’t even tell us in Digital if they are going to extend us again past 8/31, but we’re supposed to just sit here and take it to get severance

Been here almost 6years. But the last 4years have been really bad due to toxic manager/work environment in general.

Especially, with the rto mandate when my own manager works rto every Friday and some of my co workers have not been in the office for weeks.

I have been thinking of quitting. But if there's a plan for another lay off, I'll stick around til it happens for severance + unemployment.

Any hints?

First wave of ISS layoffs were executed today. If you were laid off your manager will probably have a conversation today through this week about it. :(

Question - preparing to be laid off as we all should be, IMO. How does severance pay work - do you get one lump sum or is it continued paychecks based on your tenure. If the later, do the checks stop when you find new employment?

Reputable sources upstairs say it going to happen, tipping off friends to be making plans to jump ship beforehand, huge they say

Been seeing stuff on other pages saying we will and alot of movement within the company

180 people are being laid off in Greenville. God speed

I have been hearing rumors that TPD may be completely dissolved and merged into VCG, GTS, and VBG. Does anyone have any insights on whether this is accurate? If so, what is the expected impact on the current leadership team?

Obviously internal group travel to these non-sales useless conferences still happening during layoff/travel freeze; saw these on linkedin today.

Does Mahoney or whoever the CFO is knows? Folks being gotten rid of should shoot them a message and copy paste the links

What is happening in Poland ? Seems to be another layoff

Is 3m exiting Poland ?

I have heard some people already know that they are being let go. Has everyone being laid off been told? I just want to understand the timeline and process. The uncertainty is so distracting.

Are there any actual discussions at the manager or director level regarding the specific people on the layoff list?

I’m curious if they actually compare everyone's skills, experience, and output before the list is finalized, or if it’s all just decided at the discretion of senior management.

Those w/ a last day of 09/04, have you received your severance agreement?

I’m sure this changes month-to-month or year-to-year. But, do people leaders have awareness to layoffs or are they just as caught off guard? Please provide your experiences.

Verizon’s had rolling layoffs through 2026 (~16,600+ cuts). One round did target 20% of management roles — later waves leaned more toward staff/HQ jobs. No one’s to blame — just cost-cutting waves.

I joined in 2021 and lost my position 2025 due to a layoff. I came from State Farm. I regret leaving for more money. Has there been a point of time where T-Mobile was even stable. I'm embarrassed to even have this company name on my CV anymore.

Any suggestions out there? Let’s use this thread

The San Diego Housing Commission has reduced its workforce by 14% due to financial challenges. This decision involved eliminating vacant positions and dismissing 32 staff members in February. Agency leadership cited federal funding shifts and local budget uncertainties as primary reasons for the cuts. Despite cost-saving measures, the commission faces declining resources while demand for services increases. The agency aims to maintain essential services for current clients despite these constraints.

Sarah just sent a company email at that Drew Asher is leaving at the end of the year….anddddd discuss.

An indoor farming company has announced it will close its South Side facility and lay off 166 employees. The company's planned acquisition fell through unexpectedly, leading to the decision to cease operations. This closure impacts a significant number of workers, including produce packers and machine operators. The facility had been operational since 2024, utilizing advanced technology for water conservation. The company is now winding down its operations nationwide.

What are the next planned round of layoffs? No speculation please but someone in the know please do tell.

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board is warning of potential job cuts and service reductions. Mayor Jacob Frey's proposed 2027 budget is $3.1 million less than requested. This shortfall could lead to 26 layoffs and impact recreation centers and park maintenance. The Park Board will discuss the budget proposal on Wednesday.

just a rant: kind of difficult to take in that we could potentially be laid off. A bit harder to take in especially since I joined 5 months ago as an early career new grad. Had to move across the country without relocation assistance only to be on the chopping block. wish they would rip the bandaid off already.

i know it's a stressful time for everyone given their own situations, I don't want to make it seem all about me! I hope the best for all of us! Welcome to the corporate world moment for me, lol

Anyone know what happens to employees who didn’t qualify for VSP because they have less than two years of service? Are they basically safe for now, or just not being considered until the next RIF round?

Looking to strike a more positive note on what is in our control....

1. Update accounts to you personal email

• Health
• Fidelity

1. Get all documents you need from the system

• Paystubs, end of year tax forms
• Vacation balance screenshots
• Employee Performance Reviews
• Any other personal documentation like 1-1 notes

1. Get prepared financially

• Start cutting expenses (if not already doing so)
• Have cash available for expenses - would say as much as 6 months - 1 year - market is terrible

1. Get prepared for what is next

• Get resume ready, start applying NOW
• Get your LinkedIn ready
• Get list of contacts from your coworkers who can be references, maybe able to get you referrals - start networking - that is the way most folks get a job

And most importantly take care of yourself

1. You are important, you matter to your loved ones - to the company you are a row in the employee database to delete at will
2. This is not your fault, the company has made a bet on AI infrastructure and there is nothing you can/could have done to avoid this
3. Your performance is NOT a factor - superstars with Exceeds/Outstanding have already been let go
4. Everything is temporary and a phase, tomorrow will be better - keep up your spirits

If you have any other positive suggestions please do add them to help everyone through this difficult phase

For those of us who have 2027 seperation dates, thoughts on the company revisiting those and pushing them up? On my team we have May and August dates. I want to think the PL who pinned these dates had to provide some sort of staggered timeline and may be revised. I know wishful thinking! This place is so toxic and I don't think I will make it till then.

For positions who were laid off (not VSP) there’s over a 3 week period we’re still employed. Are people attending meetings and continuing to participate as usual during this period? Curious how others are handling expectations around work and meetings during the transition including supervision calls?

Any one who has been previously laid off willing to share what the redundnacy package was? Did they pay 2,3,4, weeks per year? Etc ? I know the packages may be different globally, but trying to gage what the package is likely to look like?

Does anyone know when the next layoff is scheduled or if there is any expected timeline for the next round? Any confirmed information or official communication would be appreciated.

Central Admixture Pharmacy Services (CAPS) will close its Phoenix facility. This closure will result in the layoff of 116 employees. The company specializes in sterile preparations for healthcare facilities. Layoffs are scheduled to begin in late August. Some positions will continue until the end of the year.

Benefits end this month. Will Verizon say anything?

I heard more layoffs in NYC this week.

I think we are close to reaching a tipping point. For those who leave, be sure to encourage and pull anyone who is good with you after you leave.

I'm only 3 weeks of waiting at this point, but I see folks have been waiting since May and still haven't received it or any word from NetApp. How can we organize and get this in front of some financial reporters?

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A former Wells Fargo executive is suing the company, alleging discrimination.

Robert Propst, who served as a senior vice president at Wells Fargo, filed the federal lawsuit in Charlotte. Propst alleges company leaders marginalized him due to his vision impairment and because the majority of the employees who worked under him were Black.
The lawsuit claims the treatment of Propst and his team "changed dramatically" after a 2022 reorganization. Propst says his supervisor refused to meet with his team despite visiting Charlotte regularly and often questioned the value of their work. Propst contends his efforts to address the concerns were met with retaliation rather than support.

Propst claims his supervisor repeatedly pressured him to abandon his approved remote-work accommodation and return to the office. He says the supervisor scrutinized his attendance through badge-tracking reports even though he was exempt due to his remote status.

Propst, who worked for Wells Fargo and its predecessor companies for over 30 years, says his supervisor repeatedly made comments about his age, claiming the remarks were part of a broader effort to force him into an early retirement.
The lawsuit seeks more than $1 million in damages.

I’m sorry but does BB leadership really think making the severance 4 months instead of 2 months is a big carrot? Not too mention, it’s obvious that an employee’s term of employment doesn’t factor into anything. Whether you’ve been there 1 year, 10 years or 20+ years, it doesn’t factor into their perceived value of your service. So it shouldn’t shock anyone that their number of years working there doesn’t apply to any severance in this “enhanced” offer. I’m curious if anyone will comment that they’re going to sign up to be evaluated for this. Which is a whole other gut punch. Imagine signing up for this and BB says you don’t qualify because they already pay you so low that it would cost them more to replace you. NOT because of your knowledge mind you. Only because a replacement would cost them more to do the same job.

I heard that after next month's big layoff each first level will have at least 35 direct reports under them.
