#layoff

Layoffs just happened today..... this is horrible right before the holidays.

Around 60,000 employees — or more than a quarter of the company's workforce — about will be eligible, a spokesperson told Business Insider, and the terms will be similar to Microsoft's standard severance.

27% of the company effectively surplus to requirements.

I hope none go through this stress and the pain before and after lay off. Things circling around my head EMI kids mortgage etc. specially when u know none is hiring. There should be some way out.

Do we think layoffs will come by the end of October or November?
I heard there will be layoffs

I just got informed I am impacted and last day will be 12/31.

I managed to get through to the final interview round with two companies just to be ghosted by them. To say I'm getting discouraged would be an understatement. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Are others having more luck?

A coworker gave PayPal long days, excellent reviews, and barely took time off, but she was still laid off. She's raising two kids on her own, so don't put work ahead of your family thinking it'll pay off someday.

Disclaimer - yes, I know it's toxic but when that severance pay dries up and unemployment ends you don't say no.

Does anyone know if when you apply to a role at WF if HR or the new hiring manager actually contacts your old manager? I have no negatives in my records but just curious if anyone knows if this is regular practice.

Why? Why in the world would you do that? Are folks really that desperate after being shown the door? What do you think is going to happen if you do it? They'll invite you back? I just don't get it.

Centene is saying I chose to quit so I'm appealing the claim but wondering what I should do to prep. I don't have the email any longer where Sarah said she's going to lay people off but I have the initial VSP letter and Centene is all over the news. Would love some direction - positive comments only, thanks! ;)

At this point, I'll be honest, being laid off would be a relief. This is not the company I joined 14 years ago. I used to love my job, and now I'm miserable most of the time. I wish I could volunteer. Maybe that would help save the job of somebody who actually wants to be here.

I’m wondering if anyone has insight into how the company is handling layoffs, particularly when it comes to pregnant employees. Has anyone heard anything or know how layoffs might affect employees who are pregnant or planning to go on maternity leave?

I've heard some people complain about "not wanting to be escorted out like common criminals" and I need to know, is this really what happens? You can't even get your stuff?

We keep hearing about improvements, but day to day the work doesn't seem to get any easier. Layoff worries keep hanging over everyone, and when you combine that with the disappointing pay increases and increasingly toxic culture, it's hard to stay motivated. I can see why most people are looking to leave.

How did they notify people in the last round? I wasn't paying attention then because we were safe at the time. That's no longer true, so I'd just like to know what to expect.

Is there even a slim chance this is not layoff related?

Buckle up.

Today I plan to tell my a--hole of a boss to go and disrespectfully fu-k himself. That man put me on a PIP for no good reason and I plan to burn that bridge without a second thought.

Finally got off the losing train. No hard feelings, but I'm not riding coach on the Titanic.

Saw a post reply that if your badge
Printing access is denied as of now
Means you are already on the layoff list.

I've already been told that I'm impacted in the Tuesday bloodbath next week. What time should I expect the call that day? Do they usually do it early in the morning?

Just heard that coming Monday is the time for Engineering. Not sure if it’s true or not

What's the package

Heard numbers from 250 to 1000. Could it be?

Notified today early AM after break, started off as a quick meeting invite. Myself and the my team were let go. A large number of us in LMS. Good luck . I am in shock.

Part of me wants to leave, but starting again at this stage of my career feels like a huge risk. For now, I'm only staying because I don't know what other realistic option I have.

My wife was laid off three months ago after seven years at her job, and we have three kids to support. If this place cuts me too, my family will be in a very difficult position, so I'd appreciate reliable information rather than rumors.

A Pennsylvania company will lay off 48 employees due to a recent Supreme Court ruling. The ruling declared skill games illegal in the state, impacting Republic Amusements' operations. These layoffs are expected to be permanent and affect various roles within the company. The company supplies equipment to numerous small businesses across Pennsylvania. This decision follows a legal challenge that classified skill games as illegal gambling devices.

Heard today that recently, folks in org going through layoff tried to volunteer to go but were denied due to ‘business needs’ while others next to them were let go. Has anyone experienced this recently?

Eugene 4J school board members have unanimously approved a plan to address a significant budget deficit. The superintendent's proposal aims to close a projected $30 million to $35 million gap for the upcoming fiscal year. This financial strategy is expected to involve layoffs for both teachers and other district employees. Declining enrollment and uncertainty surrounding state funding are key factors contributing to the deficit. The district is implementing a phased approach to reductions, starting with non-student-facing roles.

We’re always waiting for the 1 very not available VP or SVP to bless a decision because they won’t let an AVP or SD make basic decisions.

Anyone else that was laid off the first week in September get their severance payment (minus the 22% for taxes) today? I was told repeatedly that I had to wait 60 days and former employees who were laid off before me said they didn’t get theirs for 60 days. I’m glad to get it early but also a little cautious that it may have been done by mistake.

It looks like they have posted a ton of HR jobs. The strategy appears to layoff everyone then have them all reapply.

To make room for AI
Teeheee

Big axx holes to save themselves they are putting blame on engineers saving themselves
Sh-t people and sh-t pls
Escape before it’s too late

Due fierce competition and also AI , Nutanix closing office in SAN JOSE probably by early next year

The split hasn't even hit yet and I personally know 8 people that have lost their jobs. They haven't even done the first "wave" off mass cuts that are planned before new year but they are cutting at staggering numbers already. Nothing makes sense. And they said there's going to be second major wave around March before summer. Its already a massive wave and theyre acting like nothings happening.
