#layoff

Instead of relying only on manager recommendations, layoff decisions should also consider employees’ actual work, contributions, and performance data available in internal systems. This would help ensure that hardworking, high-performing employees are treated fairly and that decisions are based on objective criteria rather than per

Layoff decisions should be based on fair and transparent criteria. It’s difficult to understand why some employees who were away for weeks were retained while regular contributors were laid of

Remote employees need to go. From worker bees to upper management. If you can relocate to San Antonio or another major office, then find another company to work for.

All these full-time WFH vampires are draining the true culture of USAA. Our military members can't WFH when the call comes to deploy. Neither should anyone at USAA who isn't a military spouse.

Toodles!

If I survive another round of layoffs rest assured I will be doing the bare minimum as I have been for months. I will be expect nothing more from my teams. This company is trash and are crazy if they think I will give more than 30% and that is on a good day. I am here buying my time, cashing a check and enjoying the benefits. F Verizon !

"The company continues to evaluate the strategic positioning of its Medicaid portfolio, and recently reached an agreement with officials in DC to exit its Medicaid market. Boudreaux said to expect additional exits over the next 12 to 18 months...

What does it look like for these teams? Tulsa specifically. A layoff 6 weeks after your office closes is naturally pretty scary

I didn't take the VSP benefits package. So when do I find out or when do they do those cuts.

i silent quit over 4 years ago so my time was up

I heard a rumor in November that management had no decision in the personnel that were fired and that it was all determined by AI. Can anyone with HR intel verify if that is true and how are layoffs being determined for the next round?

Victra will make all kinds of promises to you that everything will be the same or better than it was, but they're full of bullsh-t. If your store is bought by them, you're better off taking the severance and going on unemployment

My experience with the MBP QA team was disappointing. Favouritism seemed to outweigh performance, and quality work wasn't properly valued. Despite my commitment and contributions, I was made redundant while others with limited output remained.

Are you obliged to do handover after layoff tomorrow? I do not think I want to turn on my machine after that.
I am working on a project that is going live in next 2 weeks. We have some critical issues going on right now.

Did anyone get notification today?

Following up on severance and PSP for the April layoffs — do we have a payout date yet?

It’s disappointing to see some employees take weeks off or work from home without concern, while dedicated, high-performing employees face layoffs. Decisions should be based on merit, not relationships.

If you are debating leaving Truist and are afraid to, don’t be. It’s so much better being away from that place. You will make more money elsewhere and you will be happier. Don’t trust your leadership and hope that they do better because they won’t. Just leave. It will be ok! Not a troll, just a ex employee who got out and sees that it’s all working out.

Have there been anymore layoffs? Is T-Mobile still hiring developers? Is Data&AI still growing out and expanding or still contracting? What's the mood overall like in TMO?

A global wheel manufacturer will be closing its Jacksonville plant in August. This decision will result in the layoff of 62 employees. The company cited difficulties with labor recruitment and retention as a primary reason. High operating and maintenance expenses also contributed to the closure. The facility's closure is scheduled for August 30.

Energy giant Chevron is moving approximately 180 jobs from its San Ramon, California office to Texas. This move is part of a larger strategy to downsize its California presence and expand operations in Texas. The affected positions are designated as relocations, with a deadline of September 8th for the move. This follows a previous reduction of 68 positions in October 2025, bringing the total downsizing in San Ramon to 248 roles. Chevron's refining operations in California remain unaffected by this decision.

Did anyone who got impacted recently managed to get their RSUs vested sooner as part of the package?

I'm not in retail, but I see the job postings and every day there's 10+ postings with retail in the title. What is all the retail hiring if people are talking about massive retail layoff and store closures?

The nation’s largest wireless carrier will announce the cuts on Thursday morning, according to an employee who was briefed on the plans. Barron’s couldn’t verify the number of employees that would be affected.

There is no layoff news but it is expected to announce another round of job cuts on possibility, also hiring is also possible

Two years ago on this same week, I took vacation on Thursday. While out on vacation, I read about a few layoffs and wondered if my role was possibly impacted. I came back to work the next Tuesday and sure enough, a 15 min invite dropped in my calendar from my director shortly after I logged in. I knew right away what it was about. And you know what? I survived it. Lucky for me I was given the enhanced package because VSP was being offered during this time and because our group wasn’t able to volunteer, I received the enhanced package due to the impact. So, if your number is up this Thursday, know you will find a way to make it!

Is there a budget for org redesign or whatever they want to call layoffs for FY27

Does anyone have any word on EFCC layoffs? I heard they onboarded more contractors who are remote, but threaten to layoff existing remote… make it make sense.

Is gramma Abby trying to protect the company and workers from something the billionaire class knows and we don't? What serious rational reasons are there? Not discrediting the angry mobs complaining billionaires are doing billionaire things trying to make more money, but we discussed that in other threads and I feel like things are different. Something longer term is afoot?

Layoffs will be happening by the end
Of this month

In past layoffs, does anyone come to you with a list of names and you give your feedback on who you can let go? Do they look to performance reviews? Something I was informed of led me to believe that feed back from PL will be applied in this layoff.

I worked for MBP, including weekends when required. However, I received a sudden call from the TPO team and was informed that my role was being made redundant. I was laid off recently.

When's severance supposed to be paid out?

Knowing what's coming, knowing they'd most likely be able to leave with a package, why are they so quick to leave? I'm genuinely curious.

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually looking forward to the possibility of being laid off. If they offered voluntary packages, I'd take it in a heartbeat. I'm just completely exhausted by Shell.

Did anyone get an email just now from the state offering a webinar to support FDS employees that were laid off? Is it legit?

I've been struggling with motivation lately and I think I know why. I've been seeing the people who work the hardest get laid off while the ones who barely contribute get to keep their jobs. It doesn't matter how well you perform, you're just as likely to be cut. Why should anyone care about doing a good job when effort isn't rewarded?

I'm trying to find out if we're looking at cuts in August. Anyone hear anything?
